225 or the 729 ptaches

2006-07-25 by ed_limmy

Hi guys,
I'm about to pick up the printfix pro tomorrow. I"ve been thinking and 
mulling about on the prinfix pro ever since the reviews came out. WHile 
i believe i've gotten to use the canned canon profiles quite well with 
some tinkering of the color sliders at the printer drivers and now 
lately having to manually add more red in the hue/saturation function 
to add a dash of redness to skin tones - i think i'm coming very close 
to having it perfect. sTill I'm going for the printfix pro to see if it 
can improve things.

One question - do you stick with the 225 patch reading or do you end up 
needing the larger 729 patch reading. I once read bruce fraser's color 
management book in which i recall he says that more patches doesn't 
necessarily mean better profiles. DO you guys agree or not?

thanks.

Ed.
