R2880, printing from standard apps

2008-12-18 by the_mark_pv

Hi everyone.

I have just received my R2880 and am running some tests.

I have tried printing in ABW mode, from QImage:
- With ABW mode on, and no color correction in QImage
- WIth ABW on, and the corresponding paper profile loaded in QImage

I read the patches with a colormunki

I noticed that, even if the manuals suggest not to, I get a much more
linear curve when I instruct Qimage (or Lightroom) to print to the
paper profile.

There is a little bit more that could be done, however, especially in
the dark area.

I will try, hoepfully tonight, to use the create-ICC utility to see if
the linearization (and black-point) improves and will let you know the
results, if interested.

Anyone is working on the same lines ?

Thanks, Marco.
