apologies for re sending this, but I htought the weekend may have intervened.
Guys
anyone come across the Roland Hi-Fi FJ40? I think this particular
one comes without a rip.
I want to help out a friend who is buying one and is being
confused about the profiling procedure. It seems from my own
research that it uses device link profiles but that would seem
not to be an insurmountable problem.
The vendor wants to load the scanner profile into the Roland SW,
but surely that will obviate the use of a decent Photoshop
workingspace? [and would make life difficult because this scanner
has 4 profiles being a Trident powered Howtek.]
We had planned to use Ektachrome Space J.Holmes because of it's
good ability to contain all the data from our drumscans. I wonder
how close the G: 1.99 of Ektachrome Space, chosen particularly
for the Lightjet is to that of the Roland.
I have read lots of posts around and about where users said that
the Roland prefers data from the Colormatch RGB workingspace.
Could be the old Colormatch voodoo again though I guess!
Can anyone please explain why this might be the case?
Anyone out there tried one out please? It seems we will need to
allow the vendor to run the profile but I'd like it to be linked
to a workingspace rather than a scanner profile if it does
indeed utilise device link profiles.
thanks
