Magenta tint
2010-03-29 by Nestor
I have recently bought a Canon iPF6100, previously used an Epson 3800 and I have enough sheets of Epson. So far used the Spyder Print to make some measurements for QTR and generally used the Epson's own profiles,with good results. When I make profiles for Epson papers (Exhibition Fiber, Luster and Velvet), the result is good, but with a tinge of magenta. Of course I respect all the color management processes, both for the impressions of the patch, without color management, and color management, printing with profile. Correcting the Spyder Print, Advanced, the Cyan to -8, achieving a more neutral gray but with loss of saturation in warm tones. The monitor (Dell 2209 WA) is calibrated with Spyder 3 and I think that's fine. Compared to the previous copies of Epson 3800 in the same paper it is clear that difference. Printing on Canon with Hahnemuhle Rag paper 308 and using the profile provided by Hahne., the results are good, very similar to that obtained with the 3800 and Hahne. profile. With the profiles created with Spyder, I use saturation intent. What can be wrong? Thanks for any help and excuse my English. Néstor
