Lyson profiles -- and my postscript 1160...

2002-10-10 by Keith Cooper

Hello

I've recently moved my file/print server up to Mac OS X 10.2.1, it has my
Small Gamut 1160 attached. Using the latest Mac OS X drivers from Epson I'm
finding that my (Lyson) icc profile for Lyson satin/glossy paper is giving a
smoother greyscale ramp than before. Printing with the older drivers always
produced bit of a kink in the 95-98% region, such that I was seriously
looking at getting a custom profile. Now I'm not so sure...

On another matter I've finally installed gimp-print and espgs, so that my
1290 and 1160 can also be used as postscript printers! I've only had a few
quick tests of the set-up, but the range of options, along with the ability
to directly print CMYK look interesting. If anyone has any experience of
this please let me know your impressions.


bye for now
