Will, Try printing with a generic profile, such as Epson's on Epson paper, and see if the yellow/green problem is still there. If so, it may be your eyes, viewing light, or difference in tranmission color vs reflective color. I have worked on this with two printers (2200 and 3800) and have seen colorvision test prints from other large format printers (Epson's). My conclusion is that PFP has a mild yellow emphasis, but knowing this I have no trouble adding a bit of cyan and a bit of blue (3 to 4 units on the sliders and setting the reference white to 0 if the reading is a b negative number (blue). Quite happy with the set up. Only problem I have is getting the Dmax to match the canned profiles Dmax on the papers I use. (yes David, I use Saturation as my intent without BP compensation checked ;-) Paul --- In colorvision_group@yahoogroups.com, "willruggles" <2rcp@...> wrote: > > I had this same problem months ago between PFP and my 2200 using a Mac and various > monitors and calibrators I was testing.
