RE: [Digital BW] Monitor / Printer / Paper Profile

2007-01-26 by gcwagner

Thanks for the advice on the Gretag Eye One Design. Does anyone have any
recommendations the Gretag Eye One Photo or the Color Vision Pro 2 for
making paper profiles in Black and White and color?

    Messages in this topic (6) My advice:

    Do not under any circumstance by the Design and expect it to make a
    decent printer profile!

    I own it (bought it only for the spectro), and the 45 patches that it
    uses will not make a decent printer profile on any paper that I tried.
    You should be able to use the spectro with the free Argyll CMS
    software, but I haven't tried it yet. If you find a used Design for a
    really good price, then it might be worth adding the full RGB or CMYK
    module to make real profiles.
