Hello all! When I turn the printer on, it goes through its initialization procedure. During this process, the print head moves right to the capping station. This is where it makes some unusual repetitive sounds. It is like two cogged wheels are slipping against each other. I may know what has...

I have performed a successful nozzel check pattern. I then tried to perform a print head alignnment This part does not end successfully, and ends with an auto adjustment error. I have tried this several times to no success. Where can I go from here? Bob

I have a fully functional relatively new Canon PIXMA Pro-10 pigmented dye inkjet printer. I have replacement ink cartridges for some of the colors. The printer did not meet my print volume need WRT the cost of the ink. So I now am using a new Epson 3880 Designer Edition for my purposes. I do...

I am working to create a CMYK profile for a RIP. Is there relatively inexpensive software that will permit me to measures a CMYK target to end up with CMYK measurement data? Also, where can I find CMYK targets? I am going to be using Copra to generate the profile.

i am using a RIP that came with my printer, the Epson 3880 Designer Edition. Using the RIP, I want to print on sheets of photo paper that is longer than the Epson can natively print. Is this practical? I am going to precut the sheet from a roll of paper.

I have been on a quest to find the most accurate profile for my photo editing needs. I have tried SpyderPrint, Colormunki Photo, and the i1Photo Pro 2. I have found that the Colormunki provides very good profiles considering the 50+50 target that is used. I thought the i1Pro would be able to do...

i havve been entertaining myself with ColorThink Pro. I have it graph the range of tones for each RGB color for the profile I am using. I am finding a nice range with red and green. But the color "blue" has comparativley *very* shallow curve that appears not to rise further than the darker...

Hello! I have both Colormunki Photo and SpyderPrint. I have been comparing the two. In order to do this, I have purchased ColorThink Pro. It is a bit buggy and idiosyncratic, but it works. I compared them in just two ways: gamut and color accuracy to a specified color list. My focus here is the...

Hello! I am a photography enthusiast that goes back to the early '70s. I am experiencing digital photography for the first time. I have purchased camera, lenses, flash, Adobe Lightroom, and a new printer, all within the last couple months. Some of you already have been helping me in my...

I am trying to determine what the differences is between the two devices that would produce the better quality printer profiles. Specifically, I have two products to choose between. One has a good spectrophotometer but very limiting software (Colormunki Photo) and a colorimeter with software...
