Re: Cheap Spectrophotometer for making QTR profiles

2014-11-01 by 8jstewart@...

I've been using the Colormunki for years and it works fine.
-Test prints too large?? -- just tell the printer dialogue to print "2 pages/ sheet" and it will print a target that only uses 5" of paper on an 8 1/2 x 11 inch sheet.
- Colormunki has an app called ColorPicker; that is the app to use for QTR profiling. I scan the test printouts (a colormunki-style step wedge), and then export the readings to a csv file, import that into Excel, and order the excel values by L* . A quick Excel graph based on L* values shows linearity (or not), and provides the numbers to plug into the QTR .txt file.
