Please!
ColorVision,
please consider updating your software for 4x6 printers.
i have a dedicated sony printer that i would like to calibrate.
otherwise, i have had printfix pro for 3 days and am very impressed.
thank you,
Shmuel
Hello Shmuel,
Glad you like what you've seen so far!
There's a way you can profile a 4x6 printer with the existing
software, if
you subdivide the 225 patch target in Photoshop and print it on
separate
4x6 sheets:
- Open up the Targets subfolder in the main PrintFIX PRO
folder.
- You'll find a Photoshop-compatible version of the 225 patch
target there:
High Quality Target.tif.
- You can open this and print it directly from Photoshop. It's an
untagged
.tif file; make sure, when you open it, that you leave it that
way (Photoshop
should NOT color manage it).
- LIkewise, you can break this image file up into subsections,
and print them
separately on 4x6 sheets. You can probably get rows 1-8, columns
A-H in the
first print; 1-8, I-O in the 2nd; 9-15, A-H in the 3rd; and 9-15,
I-O in
the 4th. Crop these as tightly as you can and print them with the
patches
as large as possible on the 4x6 sheets. (If you're going to do
this for
several papers, and for future use, save 4 new .tif files for
yourself
once you've broken it up this way, so that it will be easy to
open and
print them again later).
- Once you've printed these, with no color management (make SURE
you have
this set right: in Photoshop's Print With Preview dialog: no
color
management; and likewise, turned off in the printer driver); you
can
measure from them and build a profile. Just make sure you measure
the patches
in the proper order.
