Re: Profiling 9800 problems

2006-06-07 by sinar001

Bill:
To figure out your problem, let's start at the beginning!

How do prints on Epson Media using Epson profiles look out of your 9800? If they look 
fine, then the problem is either in your workflow for creating and applying 3rd party 
profiles, OR, maybe you have a defective roll of paper. I think it's highly unlikely (but 
possible) that you have a defective printer.
