However using the profiles I
created with PFP there is a persistant yellowing using any of the
profiles I have created. My workflow for color images is OK as the
generic profiles produce prints with good color balance. Also have
viewed prints in various lighting conditions, daylight to
incandescent and an Ott light. I can get a near neutral print using
PFP profiles by adding 10 to 15 units of Blue and 4 units of Red in
PS before printing. I wonder if the OBs in these 2 papers are
throwing the spectro off? I have spent a lot of time working on this
before posting in hopes I could solve the problem. But, now I need
help.
Mail a 225 patch target, and a few blank sheets of the same paper, to another PFP owner. Have them build a profile from your target print, and email it to you. See if it gives the same results as yours. Then they can print a target on the same paper, build a profile, and print the test image through it, to see if they get a yellow cast. If they don't get a cast on their printer, its not the paper. If their profile works for you, the likely variable is your DC1005. If their own profile works fine for them, but the one that make for you doesn't then its likely somewhere in your system. I'd do this with you myself, but I'll be out of the country for the next couple of weeks. If no one volunteers, then contact Customerservice@..., and post a ticket with a copy of my instructions above in it, and "attn: Kiran" in the subject line, and Kiran will work on this with you.
