I´m using a EpsonC40UX and I tried at a lower dpi, thx for the help Elwin
Brub.. the problem is often the fact that images are in RGB color format and printers print in CMYK. The most important part of your Printer purchase is actually the printer´s proprietry software that does automatic RGB to CMYK conversions. <BR> <BR>The solution is that you convert your image into CMYK format before you send it out to print, see what kind of results you get and lemme know. 8)
The thing with CMYK is that it has a smaller spectrum of colours than RGB, so you´ll loose the bright colours. Another thing is that print will always be darker than what it looks like on your screen, so you have to compensate for that. <BR> <BR>Listen to spoon, after all, the man run PixelPrintz, so he should know what he´s doing (or so we hope).
Ok Grim. you where right. Cool. what I see when I convert to CMYK is exactly what prints. Now my seconde question is. What is the best adjustment to get back the bright colors like Crae said? it´s hard to get back!
Thanks BruB, the key is not in the software but in the hardware.. the printers we use have 6 color cartirdges with C1 and C2 and M1 and M2 .. these are the suplemental Cyan amd Majenta inks with much better output results.We also make color profiles with indvidual calibrations to suit each artist. <BR> <BR>However, the average home printer just doesn´t have the facilities. I have also very lit´l experience with them and it´s hard to keep up with the technology advances. But it would be good to find out if you have any calibration facilities with your printer/software combination. If not, you are left to play with different settings in your native Gfx program. <BR> <BR>I know this is not much help, but thats why we had to purchase expensive printers :p <BR>
