PrintFix Pro Suite

PrintFix Pro Suite

2006-06-08 by hanson102

i got myself a printfix pro suite and have been trying to calibrate my
monitor and get printer profile.  until now i haven't got correct
results.  i've acquired help from technical department of colorvision
but the instructions they've been giving me still doesn't give the
correct results.  my print and monitor doesn't match at all. 
actually, it's even far from being close.

has anyone use this product?  has anyone encountered same problems?

regards,
david

David,

Don't get discouraged. It does have a learning curve, but the results
are worth the work that you invest into it. I've had mine for a couple
of months and am still discovering (learning) new things on a regular
basis. At first it does seem rather overwhelming, but with patience,
you'll surprise yourself. There is one thing I have discovered, there
are just some paper,printer,ink combinations that just do not seem to
work very well together. For example, I've spent the better part of
two days with Ilford Galerie Smooth Glossy, Epson 1280 printer, and
MIS color inks; and have been unable to get satisfactory results. At
this point I've cut my losses and gone to another paper to profile.

Your friend in Photography,

Johnny

Many of the people here have used these seperate products. But without telling us what monitor, what OS, what printer, what papers, and exactly what settings and steps you are using, it won't be possible for anyone to give you anything but generic advice. If CV Tech can't cover it, I don't see how you expect a no-details post to a user group to do so.
