Could be showing your age, or lack of criminal expertise. I would suggest at least a £50 note would be a minimum for a modern forger. The £5 forgeries were what I read about in my schoolboy detective thrillers. Along with Biggles by Capt W. E. Johns. Those were the "daze". rs

At 10 bucks or thereabout for 4 oz of refill inks, why take a chance? Whether opened or not, and storage condition may be a factor. Will be interesting to see what Mike says. rs

Thanks very much emulator. Have downloaded and so far seems to be working perfectly. rs

...Always remember to introduce your children to inkjet printing early in life. That way they will never have enough money for drugs and the other perils of modern life! :) rs

Hi Harry, Did you ever solve your 3880 cartridge chip resetting problem? As far as paper is concerned Ink Stained Fingers has stated the essentials. The rest is "Just Print and See". I also have the 3880. An incredible printer and almost impossible to make a bad print on it. PAPER...

Hi Joao and welcome to the site. The Hat has already commented and you can take his advice to the bank. He has already forgotten more than I will ever know about inkjet printing. However, I would like to add a few comments for your consideration. I have a Canon Pro 100 with nearly 4,000...

There was a recent post on DPReview by Mark McCormack who observed a similar effect if the prints were treated with an aqueous coating. Mark being Mark he tabulated the results and, if my memory is correct, the measurements were in line with the figures given by ISF in the post above. rs

Perfect example of why we have four fingers CMYK. Ain't nature marvelous. The thumb is obviously for pigment black. rs

If it is very basic colour editor it could be counting colour values which may not be actual visible colours. I would like to get more involved in this field, especially with regard to producing better quality profiles than are possible with my entry level Colormunki. Unfortunately, Xrite's...

Welcome Michael, I am sure you will benefit from the experience of some of our more experienced members. Sure is an impressive array of printing hardware on your Avatar logo. Roy Sletcher

Very interesting comment which goes into areas I am interested in, but beyond my knowledge base. Are you advising us of the error of using JPG files for critical colour? I think I was aware of this. I am assuming your colour count coordinates were measured in the L*a*b* colour space which...

Would also be beneficial to indicate your location. There are significant national and regional differences in models and availability. rs

Anyone here old enough to remember the slipshod early Japanese products from the late 50's and early 60's. While we in the West were busy laughing at them, they snuck up and ate our lunch. Hello Toyota, Mitsubishi and others. rs

Looks just like the carpet at my cartridge refilling station. I have to keep is judiciously covered with furniture and other items so the "Vice President of Housekeeping Services" does not see it. :) rs

I have printed a fair number of large prints on Canvas. Your results may vary, but my results which are consistent and reproducible are: 1: You mention canvas AND canvas paper by which I assume you mean a paper with a canvas finish. I have printed on both and can categorically state that in...

Is it possible you need a better spectrophotometer than a colormunki for your profiles? It is basically an entry level instrument and not as sophisticated as an industrial strength version, which will typically read the patch multiple times and average the result for better accuracy as well as...

Hmmm!!! Human vision and the human brain are notoriously unreliable for colour perception and interpretation. This short TED talk on youtube explains a small part of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mf5otGNbkuc Now who are you going to believe? Your lying eyes or me? ;) Not...

One would hope that those visual changes in the second scan translate into a better and more accurate profile. Of course, the evaluation of print quality is a difficult and murky subject. Those interested may find a recent comment by Mark McCormick of interest at...

So correct. The unspoken secret for getting a POW is to photograph nature. In spring time flowers are an easy choice. Nature, or a superior being if you prefer that notion, takes care of the shape, colour, texture, sometimes even the composition. Basically, for the photographer, it is just a...

Sorry - I had meant to raise the matter, and it was in my notes. Unfortunately, I did not get the chance. It became evident once she had addressed, and not been able to solve, my problem she was eager to terminate the conversation. She did admit to a large number of calls about compatibility...
