Actually the scanning rail/jig is very useful when producing i1Studio/ccStudio Colormunki-based profiles (50 + 50 or 50 + 2x50) that normally would consume 2 to 3 sheets of A4/Letter papers. With this jig you can produce an accurate profile with just 2 small sheets of 4x6" (10x15 cm) photo...
iPublish/i1Profiler can be downloaded, but most importantly if you attach the device there should be green check that there is licence for the rgb printer profiling (CMYK I don't think you are doing this unless using a print press and RIP). This is a culprit for so-called cheap second hand...
Asking myself if you will have that essential license for printer profiling for the i1Pro2....the license costs as much as a device itself without license....fortunately ArgyllCMS is a good (albeit a bit cryptic) software alternative to unleash the power of your i1Pro2. I have produced a few...
I can do a test with the new slightly elevated jig (I am now using a paper/wood jig, so practically flat) and see if there is a difference by scanning with both my older paper/wood jig.
The latest i1Studio and CCStudio versions generates patches with a white or black separation bar unlike the older versions of Colormunki, where all the patches are connected continously, So I think it should be ok if the distance difference is not too large in Z-direction 5 (3 mm ?)
I want to print a scanning jig for my Colormunki and asking if somebody preferably in Belgium or the EU-region willing to print and send it to me.
Many thanks.
According to the description it should be RC paper the second version, so like Sihl/Netbit paper. The price seems to be very economical to me and free shipping. The first version gives me a feeling it is cast paper, but report back because I would be interested to buy it too.
Despite the good smooth surface that can cope the ink load the poster board was a few mm too thick to be accepted by my Epson SC-P900 and unfortunately causing head strikes (despite setting it to maximum platen gap):
Otherwise I could produce nice canvas photo boards that could be directly...
For those interested here is a patch set for profiling printable PVC ID cards that can be printed on by several printers (Canon, Epson) using a special PVC ID card tray.
In most cases the standard setting will give a strong colour cast and with this target set (be be printed on the front and...
Ohhh well it begins again:

I also have some LabelOcean 230 gsm paper (Ebay) in A2 format that can be printed well with my Epson SC-P900 and on that printer it does not glob at all. Also cast paper type, so black point is not as good as RC papers, but it does it job. The Action Glossy 210 gsm A4 paper does not work well...
This morning I went to the local Action here and I bought some of this Action paper: A4 in 210 gsm and 10x15 cm in 250 gsm version. I did some tests: my Epson ET-8550 likes both papers, BUT there were indentation on the 210 gsm version (known problem with cast papers on this machine, so use...
I have some papers of Label Ocean 230 gsm cast paper and it is not bad with my P900 with pigment ink, but you can noticeable see the lower black level with PK. It however absorbs the ink well.
They have very nice paper and not expensive at this polish webshop:

You can ask for a quote about costs and shipping to Belgium. No cast paper but quality RC papers. Available in different quality options (240-300 gsm), glossy and satin/pearl papers: from A6 tot A2
ProPhoto RGB is a fictional color space that even high camera's are not using: they use either sRGB or AdobeRGB. AdobeRGB is the largest color space most real life pictures are to be displayed in. Even high high screens (Eizo) can hardly disply 100% of the AdobeRGB color range. So my question...
