Test Files

I have just noticed that with QTR I am seeing a strange appearance in prints with abrubt tone transitions, such as this one, Fence and Shadow. It looks like QTR is trying to sharpen the image and is losing the transition, resulting in a double image. It's not happening with Advanced Black and White.

I'm using Ordered Dither algorithm, 1440 Super, Unidirectional.

I've also uploaded a colour 800ppi scan comparing the QTR and ABW prints. [800ppi scan]
