Thanks to all for your feedback. As usual on this list, lot's to ponder.
I'll read my color checker and try to use those readings, see if the RPP
64 error is lessened. I'll also compare them to the online spreadsheet to
see how they compare. I also need to get my spectro back to the factory for
recalibration.
Ben- I've read with interest your writings on fine art reproduction, and
making custom targets. I'm assuming that the effort you've put into this
has paid back in greater efficiency in your work flow. Can you summarize on
average how many test prints it takes to get to a saleable product?
I also need to follow up on the RPP profile generator. I've read, and will
re-read the manual regarding the profiling procedure, and follow up with
some questions on their forum
I also need to review my camera technique (or lack there of) in shooting
the target and art to debug that process.
I'm finding success in fine art reproduction to be an elusive goal, partly
from technical problems I need to solve, and partly from what I would call
macro economic issues. The prevalence of much shorter runs from individual
artists makes the amount of tweaking of a file needs to be lessened to do
any of this profitably. I keep trying to channel Todd & Zakia with limited
success.
I've had great results with profiling my inkjet printers and have been
producing really nice prints from a variety of files supplied to me by my
commercial clients for many years, and print rejection due to color issues
is pretty much nill. I know that's because it's the world of pleasing color
I'm working in for them, and I can reflect on my 28 years in this business
and marvel at how the science has improved. Thanks to all of you guys who
have worked so hard behind the scenes to move us this far forward!
