Yellow cast to prints

2006-12-30 by bwinkjet

Hello all,

I complained earlier about profiles that resulted in a yellow cast to 
prints.  With the sustained support of Colorvision and particularly 
David Miller I have been able to create profiles with PFP 2.0 that 
surpass canned profiles for the Epson Pro 3800.  The solution in my 
case was going to the Paper White, reference white compensation, and 
checking the box, which set the white point to 0.  I suspect this 
compensates for the whiteners in the papers I was profiling.  Now, with 
very minor tweaks I am able to get a dead neutral grey scale and prints 
that are very, very close to the soft proof.  These are good enough 
that with the 3800, Image Print will not be necessary as it has in the 
past.  Thank you David.

Paul
