Hi, hopefully there's some list members here that can help me please.
For the last couple of years I've been calibrating-linearising-
profiling the HP Z6100s and HP 5500s large format Inkjets using ONYX
Production House 7.x. Whilst there's been hiccups I think they're
printing rather nicely either through the RIP or directly from
Adobe's Suite and QuarkXPress 8 (thanks to the much improved colour
management preferences in QXP).
Primarily what I'm missing though and never totally understood is how
to match colour proofing targets. Especially when trying to get one
Inkjet to be a good match and close enough to another. Ideally, what
I especially need to accomplish is neutrality from profiled paper
stock to another as best as possible by editing the custom ICC
profiles for the machines, is this a good way to implement allowances
with an Eye-One Pro Spectro and ProfileMaker software. Or is
targeting the machines to FOGRA's new digital Inkjet ISO target v3.0
the best workflow, can you guys help me put the best foot forward
please as this is where I'm falling flat on my face with lack of
knowledge?
When trying to accomplish linearised/neutral media from different
machines I do think I have a chance here to make this work as I'm
only using one RIP (ONYX) for all the machines which I believe is a
very good idea and better provides for a closed loop when proofing
this way too.
One more point, is it recommended to use the Absolute Colorimetric
Rendering intent for matching different paper whites or should I just
match to the above target as the substrates won't differ to much,
maybe just different paper mill batch numbers?
It will mean a lot coming from this list for any pointers on any of
the above.
Many thanks,
Christian Macey
