Thanks for the tip.
Unfortunately, I don't live in USA, nor Europe...
But where I live, we have M. propre (Mr Clean?).
What should I look for in the formula?
Isopropyl alcohol, amonia, and distilled water?
Thanks.
I used pure isopropyl alcohol (99.99%) for the soaking and it worked great after a deep clean with my ink cartridges (to eliminate the alcohol in the print head).
Isopropyl alcohol is used in print industry to clean print head, so, I used it pure and I didn't notice any problem. Maybe I had...
Yesterday, I had to clean my print head because it was clogged with dried ink.
I had to make it soak in isopropyl alcohol and use a seringe with a special tip to unclog it.
It makes a mess by doing this, so I wanted to use a cleaner method.
As I have spare empty cartridges, I wanted to do so.
Hi everybody.
I want to refill an empty Canon cartridge with isopropyl alcohol and use it to clean my print head (using the cleaning process in the printing driver).
But I have one question: Is it safe to do this?
I mean the printhead is heating the isopropyl alcohol during the print...
I don't have the kodak chart...
I've downloaded it on the web...
So, it will be difficult to scan the original chart...
The aim of my scan was to show all grey shades... and to prove that I don't have breaks in the shades.
:)
The funny part of the story is that sometimes, when I look my printed...
The Hat: It's 4 times bigger because I scanned it in 800 dpi (to see every details)...
My chart isn't as green as what you see... My scanner has changed a little bit my chart.
But to be fair, it looks like it's not totally neutral... But it's subjective.
I think it's because of the artificial...
Hi
I use an Epson Premium SemiGloss Photo Paper and Sudhaus ink. My printer is a Canon IX6540 and I profiled my printer with a Colormunki Photo.
I took this chart to test my shade of grey:
Here is the result.
For me, my profile is "reasonable"... There's no break in the shades of greys...
Hi everybody :)
I've done a new icc profile increasing the -g and -f values (-g433 and -f1298). I kept -e8 and -b8.
Right now, I have an other problem...
To make a test, I took a picture of the wolf here...
Ok.
Thanks for the explanations about -d2 parameter.
And what about 50% of greys?
More I have a high percentage of grey, better will it be for B&W prints or not?
Will it be more precise on B&W prints?
I've tried once 100% of grey and it failed.:hide
:celebrate
And what about my question...
Hi
I have an Epson printer, and I have spongeless refillable cartridges with autoreset chip.
I only have to remove the plug, put the ink inside and insert the plug.
Thanks to the autoreset chip, I don't have problem. The only thing is to check regulary to make sure it's not empty. The chip...
Hi,
Happy new yeah and I wish you all the best. :woot
I'm new to ArgyllCMS and colormunki.
After successfully profiled colors, I have problems to get neutral B&W prints.
I explain: I've made a profile to fix colors of my printer/paper/ink.
Here are my parameters:
targen -v -d2 -G -e8 -B8...
Just got my first profile with argyll.
Woaw.
It´s at the same level as the spyder3print, maybe a little bit more detailed because it´s less dark (it was a black and white picture).
The advantage is that it´s super fast compared to the spyder3print.
First I was affraid because of the size of the...
Okay, I've understood...
You used the -L parameter in printargs to remove the white space, and now I only have 4 sheets.
I think you used the -B parameter in chartread?
Thanks.
My colormunki is now detected.
@palombian: Your measurements are correct if your Colormunki is in the air?
@cls: I've done this and I got a problem:
targen -v -d2 -G -e8 -B8 -g128 -f576 10x15cm
printtarg -v -ii1 -a0.9 -A0.6 -T360 -m2 -P -p10x15cm
chartread -v -H -T0.4 10x15cm...
