Re: LCD vs. CRT.   I have found the La Cie Electron Blue CRT to have superb
calibrated color.   The monitor has a built-in srgb mode.   You can also buy
the La Cie color calibration tool (similar to the Spyder but works only with
La Cie monitors) to get really precise colors.

La Cie also makes two models of LCD displays.   www.lacie.com

The main criticism of LCD screens has been their low contrast ratios versus
CRTs. I can certainly see a huge difference between my wife's laptop screen
and my Sony Trinitron monitor. When I last looked a few months ago, they
were getting better. Do any LCD monitors match CRTs for image editing?

And the price?

Were there any defective pixels?

-Thanks Ernst,

I see.

Since the total for the parts only cost me $50.00 I have ordered a new
capping assembly and a new pump assembly. I'll take a rest from it and come
back to it in a couple of days when I'm less stressed. In the meantime I'll
check on the prices of the 9600's. I don't imaging it is that smart buying a
refurbished one. I want major long term support, forever, for the life of
the printer. I'm sick of being covered with ink.

Subject: Re: LCD vs. CRT

Contrast ratios are up to 400:1 but are still well behind plasma or CRT.
The big downfall of LCD is its poor black generation.  This is why it will
be a long time before plasma is pushed out of the living room/home theatre
environment. (Note even Apple's 16.7m colours is way off plasma's current
1070m and brightness also lags way behind plasma.  They do outperform in the
resolution stakes which is important for close-up, ie computer monitor,
viewing)  I think the over-riding sales advantage to LCD vs CRT is a better
form factor (space, style etc) and probably lower cost of
production/transportation/storage and higher retail margin.  The bottom line
is they look cool and are good enough to get the job done for most people so
they sell.  I would not want to rely on one to watch my DVD collection
though, let alone HDTV....But I can tell you there is a massive increase in
quality from an Apple laptop screen to one of their Cinema (now there's a
misnomer!) displays.

The US market is a vastly bigger market than the Japanese one (a 
combination of a much bigger population and a much richer economy) so 
Epson isn't going to phase out the 2200 until they have a replacement 
available.   Ditto with the EU.

Antony,

 I use my Artisan for critical color work, but I use my Formac Gallery 21" 
lcd for everything else, including much of my printing which isn't 
absolutely critical in color terms. The LCD is far superior in everything, 
except it can't display an absolutely neutral grayscale. It's sharper, 
brighter, bigger, and just far more user-friendly than the Artisan. The new 
Eizo is even better I understand.

Anthony,

For some things digital is better, and for some things film. Same for CRTs 
and LCDs.

Digital and LCDs advance every month or two. Films, scanners, and CRTs are 
rapidly becoming OT - old technology! They still have their uses, but the 
world moves on.

Subject: Re: 2200 being phased out or not. (was Re: Duotone Grey printing
with 2100)

It is well known that Epson tends to release its new products in Japan
several months before their release in the US and Europe - hence members of
this forum keeping an eye on the Japanese "I love Epson" site.  It has
released in Japan an A3+ version of the R800.  I would expect this product
to be released in the US and Europe soon.  This does not mean that it will
halt production of the 2200 (note the 1290 is still available).  However, I
bet Epson considers the new R800-style printer to be its current
state-of-art A3+ printer.  The 2200 brought us 7 (or more accurately 8)
colour pigment inks.  This has now evolved to 7 different colour pigment
inks to broaden the colour gamut and a gloss optimizer to tackle the
bronzing issue on glossy media.  Furthermore, there were improvements in the
droplet size.  If you trace back to where this subject was first raised,
there was no inference that the 2200 was going to be phased out but rather
simply that a newer and arguably, for most, a better model was just over the
horizon.  BTW, it is a dangerous assumption to presume that a bigger and
"richer" economy is an appropriate environment for launching new products.

Subject: Time for a new paper

Hi folks.

I`ve been using Epson Enhanced Matte and Epson Velvet Fine Art for all my
printing needs.

90% of what I do is EAM and the rest is Velvet.

Only my super images go to velvet :-)

Now I´d like to try something different. 

I´m a fan of matte papers and would like to try a new brand / type of paper
based on your input.

I´m very happy with the results I`m getting. But with the number of
different papers available I have a feeling I´m missing something. On other
words, there must be more than 50 different options for an Epson 2200 and I
know just 2.

So, please folks, fire at will. What paper would you recomend for black and
white work on Epson UC Inks, using QTR, with a matte surface?

Thanks for any advice.

Nelson

Amen on all!  Huge difference in eyestrain.  Add these to the list:

- Recover several square feet of work space (a major feature!)
- Less heat generated
- I think they also use less current (anyone know for sure?)

Now we have H. Velvet White with even more obs? Right? How does that look. I

Yea, my girlfreind is a web designer and has one of those Samsung rotating
LCDs, and I 
have to admit it looks pretty damn saturated and sharp, and takes up so
little space. 
Tubes are so heay and fat, but this 22" Mistsubishi that I am using right
now is 4.5 years 
old and still looks great. That surprised me. How long are the LCDs expected
to last, 
realisticly?

Good Question! I dunno? I think there worth it if they only last 3 years, 
they are only getting better and more affordable. In a couple years we can 
probably get nice 21's for 600.00

It would seem not; image quality seems to be improving, the obvious 
advantage of space gained on the desk, steady down curve in pricing, weight.

Just a few of the apparent reasons. Plus marketing!

IMNSHO, yes. ;-)

I work for a major national ad agency, and all of our 75+ art 
directors, designers and studio/production artists are on Apple Cinema 
Displays--and have been for 2 generations now.

Yes, we lease the monitors, so we don't have to deal with any pixel 
failure or other potential long-term issues. And yes, we pull high-end 
proofs from outside vendors to make sure color is dead-on for final 
reproduction. But before it gets to that point, we have to pull plenty 
of in-house prints for client approval. They (and our Creative 
Directors) expect those to look great now--and for the proof to confirm 
what they saw, not reinvent it.

I too err on the side of caution when it's my own money at risk. But 
from first-hand observation, the Apple LCD's are definitely "good 
enough" for companies with a lot more at stake financially and 
reputation-wise than my little ol' photography business.

Subject: 1160 - bits of ink on paper edge


I've tried cleaning the black plastic tray which has little 'pockets' 
in it, over which the print head travels. But I am still getting 
small ink stains on the very edge of the paper, particularly on one 
of the trailing corners of the paper as it feeds through. It is 
inconsistent with some prints coming out clean. 

How can i get rid of this pestilence. It's a frustrating waste of 
good prints

In the end lots of reading isn't bad.  But, get in touch with a couple of
suppliers and have them provide some samples of the things that interest
you.  I'ts probably the quickest and surest way to make a decission.

desk, even when they're not on.

Yes, about 1/3 to 1/3 the current.
