Re: re:2200 drivers

2004-01-23 by Tony Bonanno

Hi Owen,

I have two Windows XP workstations in the studio, one of them still 
has the old version 5.31 driver on it.  I just made a few comparison 
prints between the two drivers (5.40 & 5.31) using EEM paper and my 
normal workflow which includes the Gray Balancer software (I seem to 
be one of the few getting good results with the Gray Balancer for 
controlling metamerism).  The test pics, for all practical purposes, 
were the same.  Not sure what happened on your system or whether the 
use of the Gray Balancer canceled out any differences ???  I haven't 
tried Carl Schofield's method though.  May try it soon and see if 
any differences.
