I use Photoshop so it's easy to increase the saturation of any color.

Directly. I'm not sure if they sell through retailers anymore.

I hate glass reflections and so have completely quit using it. I now glue my prints to a board and hang it that way sans frame and glass. If it damaged then the owners should be more careful.

That's why I use it, quality over convenience.

I love this paper. It literally is unique, but it doesn't work well for many images. It loves greens (makes them look fluorescent), is OK for Reds/oranges but I've had to add +30 saturation for ...

The most common "fixes" for a head strike is to: 1. raise the head height to maximum 2. max out the vacuum 3 .make sure the paper isn't warped

Another vote for Canson Aquarelle and Photographique. I've tested a LOT of papers and they are my two favorite matte papers.

The x900 series printers using HD ink make beautiful prints. The main improvement in the newer printers is in increased fade resistance of the inks by almost 2x, especially the yellow. It's ...

MB size is not important. Only MP size is important as that represents the actual data from your camera. The way to judge how big of a print you can make is to take the original pixel count and ...

As long as they use the same inks and heads the colors and print pattern should be virtually identical (baring the subtle differences between printers). And you can always get a custom icc profile ...

Once those heads are clogged the printer is just a big paperweight. Take the printer to the dump and sell the cartridges (if they're unopened).

I shoot the 24-35 on the FF Panasonic S5 (via the MC-21) and have excellent edges when shot at f8 (my normal aperture for landscapes).

When you do a nozzle check and the lines print at an angle instead of straight then the head is delaminating.

Walmart and Walgreens still has a printing service (so far).

If you're wanting to do outdoor portraits you might want to add some wide aperture lenses like the Canon 50 f1.8 and 85 f1.8 so you can create out-of-focus backgrounds. They will also help you in ...

I assume you're not selling your prints, therefore if you don't need more than 13" the ET8550 by far has the cheapest ink.

Which store did you go to?

When I first started printing I did a lot of experimentation on how to get the finest detail on my print. What I found out is that in order to get the finest detail you have to have a printer with ...

Because you're printing on canvas (which doesn't require as high of a resolution as paper) they might look a little soft at the 100x70cm size but would still work if you don't look too close at ...

Nice to know. Thanks
