eye4clr,
Did you watch the roland webinar for creating a profile. I didn't agree with how they taught to create a profile.
You gave a great tutorial on printingdigital back in the day about how to select ink limits of each color channel using a spectrophotometer. Thank you for that by the way!
Roland said that you turn down the color channels to prevent excessive ink in each channel based on that substrate. That was all they said for setting color limits.
That makes no sense to me. If all the ink is to heavy and you turn all the channels down to 70% and your paper has a blue hue to it, you're going to have blue prints!!!!
Why wouldn't they teach people how to properly measure the color channels with the eyeone and then limit color channels based on the output of color on that substrate?
I set my total ink limits first for the substrate, and THEN print the charts based on that output. THEN select the proper channel limits based on the eyeone readings.
Why the hell would someone set all the values, pull the channel restrictions out of the air, adjust the curves and THEN set the total ink limit? The swatches for the profile would be totally off.
Oh well. I receive compliments on our color output all the time. I'll keep doing what I'm doing.
I'm curious what you have to say about the webinar, if you had a chance to watch it. I felt like it covered about 5% of the profile making process.
I suppose it's enough to get a guy in trouble. :ROFLMAO:
