Can you run a printer from a laptop? Yes Should you? No When ripping large files, your CPU will be sitting on 100% for as long as it takes to rip. if this was on a laptop, it'll get hot, thermal throttle and slow it down until it cools. On a properly built pc or workstation, this is less...

Edit: I couldn't connect to Onyx Production manager on my laptop, but could on the RIP PC. Realised that i had to allow port 80 thought the PC firewall. Problem solved

From what you have just said, you have no reason to print to a standard. i can understand with wanting the same colour output though out the whole shop, but if they just print to their maximum capability, all the printers will be very close anyway as long as they're all calibrated correctly.

That's your issue. You either need to find the specific profile for the media your using, it seems as you have, but specifically does your profile match the media name. for example the 3M profile is for the ij35c media, and not the RadGraphicx stuff you're using. So it's no surprise it wont...

I print to my printers full colour gamut. most people don't have a need to use a printing standard like GRAcol or Fogra unless you're printing commercial products like magazines, packaging. You're basically just limiting your printers colour output to match a standard.

It's also far more complicated than that. the "chart" is only 1 thing, but the rip also controlls ink drop sizes, ink limits and curves and more depending on your printer, So for example, your printer is shifting colours after a month, you can re linearise and changes the ink curves back to how...

You're whole print is completely off. It could be settings inside monaco, its been a long time since ive used that, and i don't remember it at all. Are you changing settings inside monaco? Watch the video above, Try that method and see if your results are any better.

Welcome! when you print black/gray, is it gray with a slight red or green tint or it really looks red or green?

Your comment really confuses me. How do you calibrate your printer IF you use the manufacture profile? Or do you mean, you linearise your printer each morning? unless you're confusing terms and im not making sense of it. None the less, I think this video may help you.

im not sure what you're asking, but if you're talking about printer profiling then: Depends on the software you have... and what RIP are you using? Does the HP do it all automated? or is there user input on ink limits ect? is there any adjustments in the ICC creation? IICR the HP on-board...

Sorry missed the link in that post, but that example is much better. I know it's also difficult to enlarge images of people with out them looking like a cartoon. I can see what you're trying to do and it's great. But i'll stand by where colour grading should be left alone unless specified by...

I just want to add my 2c in. As someone who does a lot of printing for photographers, and also a photographer myself, If i had to use software to blow up my low res image or get someone to do it for me. I'd expect the image to look the same with the exception of more detail. changing colour...

open to suggestions. i had a look at the other thread and saw, Asama. We're going to trial that for a week or so. That's both and the free version looks like enough for us for the time being. Asama works on both it seems and allows us to upload images. that comes in handy quite a lot.

Anyone use workflow/jobs software on ipad? if so what are you using? I dont know much about it, nor am i finding what im looking for in the app store, or using the right keywords. Basically something we can post jobs and info on i.e tasks. Im looking to move away from emails and onto some...

water / mentholated spirits 50/50. Isopropyl. Both very good glass cleaning agents. We don't bother to much with this. 99% of the time out glass comes cut right and we print on the "air" side. but every now and then someones cut the glass backwards and we've printed on the "tin" side. we've...

I believe they mean resize but the way they said it as if you can do it while saving the pdf. but thanks, i know how to resize, just though there was some other way doing it while saving it as a PDF.

im having someone print a banner for me as i dont have time to do it. i've made the artwork (vector) ect but they've asked to "save it as a PDF to 10%" How do i do this in illustrator? Thanks

You can use the swaps to soak the heads with the flush. let them soak for an hour probably. ever few minutes just keep adding flush and dont let it dry purge it. do the suction. do a few tests. have a look. then i'd use isopropyl to swab them. let them soak for a few minutes. then use a dry swab...

Cast vinyls?

Im not sure why gaming laptops are even on topic for a work station. If you look had enough, there's this brilliant company called lenovo. They they have a model called the "Think Pad" and in that Think Pad range they have the "P Series" Have a look at the P1 Gen2 CPU Choices? i7 9750H i7...
