Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Newbie problem!

2006-04-11 by Alan Kearney

I have similar differences between my PC, running XP Pro SP2, PSCS 2;  
and my G5 running OS 10.4.6, PSCS 2.

Same tiff file prints perfectly from my PC and too light from my Mac.  
Same printer, same file. The only difference that I can think of is  
the PC is probably using Adobe Gamma and the Mac is using ColorSync.

To darken my Mac prints I've increased the Ink Limit and Gamma  
percentages. I'd think you can reduce those same things on your PC to  
get the print the way you want it.
