    Aldi Expertiz Photopaper - Germany

    I am afraid the PE coated papers are no longer available in Aldi. I am desperate looking for those Exptertiz, Netbit, SihlX papers that are really good quality for the price. Only El Cheapo cast coated photo papers of inferior quality.

    Colormunki Photo for sale

    If you want to use ArgyllCMS. I have produced a very easy to read 480 patch target that produces superior targets compared to even the 50 + 2 x 50 patch method of ccStudio.

    Colormunki Photo for sale

    Hi Lothar, you should indeed scan slower and move the Colormunki with a much slower pace when scanning these patches. The reason is that the Colormunki takes 50 samples per second: moving too fast and it cannot pick up enough information of each miniature patch. I move with a speed of about 2-3...

    ArgyllCMS 648 patch target for i1 Pro 2 device.

    I think Stormlight means the rebranded X-rite device (EFI ES-2000): Don't worry I bought it for a fraction of the price and it was almost brand new (backup from a photographer.

    My new (second hand) X-Rite i1-Pro 2 Basic spectrophotometer kit

    It was absolutely a bargain: an almost never used (was a backup for a photo studio), including the reading panel/jigg for making printer profiles. Unfortunately no license to do printer profile, but happily using Argyl lCMS.

    Can pigment ink be put in the ET 2650?

    Even the Epson 1500W photo printer using dye ink and which can fire droplets as small as 1.5 pl can handle pigment ink. The ET-2650 fires with much larger droplets so my educated guess it will even work better.

    Can pigment ink be put in the ET 2650?

    It can be perfectly done: Epson printers can -due to the piezo print heads- handle almost any type of ink: dye, pigment, sublimation. Be sure to remove as much as possible of the dye ink from the tank reservoirs as possible and prime the print head first (there is still dye ink in the tubing up...

    Actually it is done in your printer driver: choose multipe pages on 1 sheet: 4 in 1 and choose accordingly your best orientation and here you go. Note: you will have to make a customized ruler to guide your Colormunki over these miniature patches in order not to scratch and damage the...

    Epson XP-15000: how to mix dye ink with clear ink base to obtain red and grey using CMYK

    20Y and 80M is slightly better. Note it is an approximation, because the real red is a bit intenser not obtained by mixing Y and M in the exact right way, but nevertheless after a custom profile I hardly see any difference at all in real world pictures.
