Re: MIS Archival GP inkset

2005-05-03 by zapzap_it

Dear Bob,

I appreciate very much your tips. Many, many thanks.
From now and on I'll respect the topic of this newsgroup. 
Let me, however, ask to you these two last questions:
I use Spyder2 to calibrate my monitor. I'll buy a customized profile 
from cathys. Then I'll have no more need to set the printer in 
Photoshop (like 1440 dpi, No color adjustment etc.)? If not, is it 
true I must set  Photo Quality Glossy Film to use Premium Glossy 
Paper with my Epson 1290 ?

Buy, Emiliano
