I hope this question makes sense. I have a color head but use Ilford filters for contrast. Ilford provide a list of yellow and magenta color head settings with their paper but I get different results with these settings than I do with the filters that slide into the head. I think it sounds easier to use the filters n the color head, so I want to calibrate it but not quite sure how to do this.
If I expose a 31 step wedge using the ilford grade 2 filter for max black min. time, and then dial in the approximate color head filter for a starting point, I assume I am looking to find the filter comb. and exposure time to make a print to match the one made with the Ilford filter. Am I on the right track? Would I then repeat this for other grades?
