Re: all profiles have too much yellow

2006-09-25 by aargvork

Hi Terry,

I am profiling papers and canvases from Epson 9600s and 7800s and 
the problem is there on both. I've been printing with manufacturer 
supplied profiles over the last few years without problems so I 
don't think it's my workflow, although I will retrace my steps as 
Paul is doing. With other projects needing more attention right now, 
I may not get back to profiling for a couple of weeks. If anything 
shows up then, I will update this post.
