Hi Tony,
This is off topic from the thread but wanted to share an experience. I once had
trouble making a Giclée print with an Epson on canvas that contained dark
tones. The original was an oil painting and my ¾ tones were dark saturated
purples that kept going to black or near black–a lot of black streaks that now
looked like brush strokes. After tweaking things in the RIP, StudioPrint, and
other tricks without success, I finally looked at the GCR. That solved the
issue by adjusting the GCR black curve. I tried various curves but ended up
using a setting of no K for my custom profile. Once black was removed then I
had a print I could work with and tweak those heavy saturated colors.
