Differences in measured target

2007-12-12 by harleyandhiggins

Using PrintFixPro Suite, version 3 Prinefix

Canon iPF-5100

Profiled papers: 
Epson Luster 
Kodak Ultima Gloss

Here are my observations.

In both cases, the printed colour targets are bright and realistic 
looking.

When comparing the split targets on-screen, when there is a visual 
difference, the measured are alway darker/duller in appearance. 

On the Epson paper, the on-screen split screen differences are 
signficantly less than the Kodak. Also, more numerous on the Kodak 
split screen.

In both cases, the colours are ALWAYS darker/duller. The differences 
are much more numerous and more significant on the Kodak paper.

Generally speaking, what does this indicate?

When I printed the pic of the beige home with lots of blue sky on the 
Epson paper, there was noticable banding only in the beige area of 
the home. Would profiling with the 700 patch correct this?

Thanks for your help.

Paul.
