    printing postcards with Epson Ecotank

    "print preview dosent match" might not be a problem with the printer itself.. Perhaps your monitor needs to be calibrated? Can you show us example? Maybe a photo of your screen and one of the print?

    Can this be true: spectro quality printer profiles with this software and a scanner.....???

    I own an older version of profile prism. Mike Chaney used to ship out an IT8 target with the purchase. I also had an older custom target. The issue with the software was getting a correct scan. Most of the time using a Canon LIDE it was fine but some paper/ink combinations didnt work as well...

    Accidental purchase of what seems to be a wide gamut monitor

    Hi everyone. My old korean "QNIX" monitor died so I bought two cheap 27 inch 1440p panels of that South American river site. And when I say cheap I mean cheap. I got them for 159$ Canadian each. I made sure to chose an office oriented model rather than gaming as the design priorities...

    They confused the heck out of me.. How do you use them?

    How to use an unlicensed i1Pro spectro with i1Profiler and ArgyllCMS

    Question here... when saving the measurements, i1profiler offers two formats - one is i1profiler cgats spectral, the other one is profilemaker5 cgats spectral. Considering that txt2ti3 was designed around converting gretag/logo and xrite colorport measurements, wouldn't the profilermaker 5...

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    I noticed that... there was a thread on the luminous-landscape forum that details some "magic numbers" to follow for the number of patches in i1profiler. These magic numbers would be maximum neutrals and also a strict rgb grid, say 7x7x7 which is what i1profiler supposedly prefers and which is...

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    It might also be a good patch generator for a licensed i1Profiler user if a conditioning profile is NOT used but I haven't tested that theory. I just wanted a GUI to scan in my patches with my new (to me) i1pro / efi es1000

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    This new version allows choosing the number of white and black patches. By default, a TI1's grayscale patches are always separate from OFPS. I added a switch to have them randomized then blended in to the OFPS patchset. The white and black patches are always blended in because they were...

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    That's normal. The displayed command at the bottom is just a preview of the targen command because I had some doubts while developing it. I think I'll just add in prefilled options for white and black patches. Scrambling the results dosent seem too complicated either

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    Thanks for looking at the tool. This is a first attempt I noticed the issue with the scramble button. I wasn't sure if i1Profiler was overwriting the custom patches or not. It might be possible to modify my tool to scramble the patches in the ti1 file before its used to generate the pxf file...

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    As a followup, if you want to use an X-Rite unsupported device with ArgyllCMS without using i1profiler (say an old ISIS bought off ebay) this will take a TI1 file and convert it to a format that can be imported into X-Rite Coloport. Colorport is a free tool from Xrite that allows older devices...

    Python GUI to generate TI1 files for ArgyllCMS and convert to i1profiler patch set

    Hello everyone... WIth a little bit of AI powered help, I was able to create a method to use ArgyllCMS as a patch generator for i1profiler. My tool will generate a TI1 file using targen and then convert the ti1 file to an i1profiler patch set (pxf file). Why would this be useful? I now...

    Possibility to convert csv-file with only L*A*B* values into a ArgyllCMS ti3 file

    Here is some info from our spyderchart thread where I was able to read an export from the datacolor software directly into argyllcms. https://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/converting-spyderprint-225-patch-target-to-i1profiler.16879/post-144507

    Possibility to convert csv-file with only L*A*B* values into a ArgyllCMS ti3 file

    Hi.. You could try using chartread with the -x switch. There is probably a way to feed your CSV data through STDIN Something like type data.csv | chartread -xl profile I'm not 100% sure it will work.. Do you have any files you could send me? I could try to figure it out

    Alternative ArgyllCMS rgb printer target for Colormunki/i1Studio

    Nice work! The patch size is interesting! Is there any particular printtarg commands you used for this chart? With all the experimenting we've done lately, I'm at the point where I just simple do a one page chart with preconditioning. I would love to reproduce something similar for letter...
