Help printing gradient from Photoshop

2018-09-07 by Dwight Lindsey

Hello all:

I’m new to the list and I’ve got a simple goal that I’m having trouble with.

I’ve made some gradients in photoshop. I’ve got linear gradients and radial gradients. They look beautiful in Photoshop.

I’m having trouble printing them as smooth gradients.

I’m using an Epson SureColor P800 printer with the OEM Epson Inks.

When I print directly to the printer from photoshop, I don’t get smooth gradients.

I had hoped that QuantoneRIP could help, but when I make a TIFF, which looks good, and print it with Quadtone RIP, I get pretty much the same not-smooth-gradient.

I’ll be grateful for any help getting me pointed in the right direction to solve this.

Thanks!

Dwight
