C88 and MIS EZ-UT settings...

2007-01-08 by rlyadoptr

Greetings,

This question should probably be directed at Paul Roark, but I'm 
posting in case anyone else can provide some insight...

I recently converted my C88 to MIS EZ-UT inks and I am printing 
primarily on Crane Museo Silver Rag.  I am getting good results but I 
would like to confirm my tests against Paul's recommended settings to 
ensure that I am getting the most out of these inks.  

Unfortunately, there appear to be some inconsistencies in the C88 
Glossy instruction PDF 
(http://home1.gte.net/res09aij/C88_EZ_Slider_settings.pdf).  

Specifically, in section 2b, in CS(CS2/CS3) if the print color 
management setting is to not have PS do any color management, the 
printer profile drop list is disabled; i.e. I can't select the ICC 
that matches my paper.

Also, if using ICCs, should color management not be disabled in the 
print driver contrary to what is specified in section 3 "Driver 
Properties"; i.e. shouldn't this be Color Management->ICM->Off 
instead of Color Management->Color Controls->Gamma 2.2?  If I am not 
mistaken, what is specified would lead to double profiling or double 
color management.

I apologize in advance if I am misunderstanding the instructions.

Thanks in advance,

You're right, there seems to be a mistake in the pdf.  For an ICC, you need
to Let PS Determine the colors.

 

Frankly, the C88 write up was a rush job that may have other mistakes.  I
haven't use the machine for a while.  Let me know if there are other errors.
