Re: Linearizing a QTR Curve using Step-21-gray stepwedge: pre-printer setup question

2007-02-06 by Daniel

anyone knows?

i've printed the step-21-random.tif using two different settings: one Printer Manages 
Colors, and the other No Color Management. i did measurements on both and the 
measurements between them are very different.

does anyone knows which setting should be used - Printer Manages Colors  or No Color 
Management.

anyone?
