Hi everyone,
I have an interesting problem, one which I am sure has affected many
people.
And, I am slightly embarrassed to bring this to the group, but I can't
figure out how to solve my problem.
I have an Epson 9600 printer. I have been printing to that printer for
over a year, with reasonable success.
I printed one of Bill Atkinson's test targets the other day, and then
made a profile for the printer using an Isis spectro and ProfileMaker
Pro.
In an analysis in ColorThink Pro, I notice that the gamut of colors is
surprisingly small, much smaller than other profiles I have made in
past years on this printer and a 9500 I had before.
I am printing with one of the Gutenprint drivers.
I decided to download from Epson the "latest" drivers for my printer,
and install an official Epson printer driver.
But, on the Epson site, they make a disclaimer that the software (in
essence) does not support all functions of the printer, and will not
work well.
So, I downloaded the disk image and have not installed the driver yet.
I am running an Intel Macintosh with System 10.5.7.
What I hope to learn from you in the ColorSync community is:
1. What printer drivers do you recommend for an Epson 9600 with
Ultrachrome Ink (Photo Black),
and,
2. If you recommend the Gutenprint drivers, what settings (sorry,
there are hundreds) do you recommend to get the largest gamut of color
possible on this machine with these inks.
I thank you in advance for your input on this issue.
Brian

Dear list,
I'm looking for the following sources for my project composing,

share a legal softcopy to me, that will be highly appreciated.

Hi all list,
hope all US friends have happy 4th of July ...
i have problem with instalation of ColorMail Express utility. Any
attempt is ending with error message about some missing folders/
files with strange non existing paths. Same result on two computers
and under CZ/US Windows (Win2K SP4).
ColorMail is several years old and little utility, Win2K is
supported (in fact, this is pre-XP product, as far as i know), free
from Xrite site.
I am pretty sure that i am not only, and dont understand, why
support site have no info about this ...
Please, help ... i can imagine better way how spend some hours than
manually enetring samples to 528 :)))
With warm regards to all in this graet list,
Kaml Tresnak
Prague, CZ
