I take your point about the lack of grey inks. I was forgetting that the P400 is different from the other 'P' models. Could be worth a sheet of paper to try though! Phil

Why not print with the Epson ABW mode, which incidentally doesn't use Colour Management? Cheers, Phil

It's down to the actual 'Media' type that you set in the Canon driver. Only certain settings will trigger the use of the 'extra' colours. Even then you'll find that very little of these inks is ...

Think you also need to contact Apple, as they were claiming to be from AppleCare, and also Police? Seems like a variation on the old Windows scam which has snared many thousand in the UK alone. ...

Beware of the Apple Airprint driver which may prevent you using proper Application Colour Management when printing with WiFi. This is a cut-down printer driver. Not sure if it applies in this ...

Phew! Thanks for the update. I won't have to rewrite my Instruction manual to my remote profiling customers. Cheers, Phil

Hi David, It should be clear when you read my articles, I hope! Adobe removed the 'No Color Management' option from PS in CS5, about 8 or so years ago. It then became obvious that folks were having ...

Hi, Macs automatically disable Colour Management in the driver if using Application Colour Management. That is unless you have enabled the cut-down 'Airprint' driver which is often (always?) broken! ...

Hi David, You're welcome! If you need more info, there's loads on my site, as I make profiles, although not free ones! This is about the special Adobe Color Printer Utility, which is for printing ...

Hi, You should be OK with the Lightroom settings you show, but in PS you'll also need to select the same settings in the printer driver that you used in LR, ie 'No Color Adjustment'. In Windows the ...

Interesting thread! I also have a 3880, and have had just a few minor clogs in 3 1/2 years. Had a R800 years ago, which was a disaster, and was always clogging. I didn't realise that it was SEIKO ...

Hi, I think you'll get a few more prints out of those nearly-empty carts yet! It'll tell you when they're really empty! It didn't actually waste any when you first switched it on, as it was just ...

Hi, I have the Eizo CG2730 which is a more expensive version and am very satisfied. I also have an older and cheaper wide gamut 24 ins. Eizo which I was very satisfied with, and have never had a ...

First thing to do is a Nozzle Check, as you could have blocked jets. There's a utility to do this. See your printer's manual or help file. Could also be low on ink? Cheers, Phil

You absolutely MUST NOT send CMYK to an inkjet printer. They are ALL designed to only accept RGB images via their drivers! Photoshop's CMYK colour spaces are all designed for commercial (offset ...

Hi, Agreed the monitor will need to be calibrated sooner or later, but as he isn't using OEM inks he doesn't have a meaningful printer profile, and a custom profile isn't very expensive. Cheers, Phil

Hi Matt, You're right about the outlay, but the outlay for higher level equipment than the 'munki is much higher! My service is actually used perhaps more by pros and semi-pros! A screen calibrator ...

Hi Matt, You need to use the embedded ProPhotoRGB profile for this test, and NOT your Working Space. This refers to the embedded profile of the image, and is nothing to do with a printer. DON"T ...

Hi Matt, You just need to go to my site's Profiling page, follow links to Order page, download the package of manual and charts, print them out, following instructions. Fill in the form in the ...
