Click link to download a zip file containing all the QuadToneRIP .quad files with a series of linear ink blends of matte black and photo black ink with proportions varying from 95/5 to 60/40 mK-to-pK ratios. These quads are for the 10-ink P900 printer which has the separate mK and pK channels. It will not be appropriate for the P5000, P7000 and P9000 printers which do not have two black channels even though they do have 10 inks.
