thanks for a fine video. my pics were too dark. I understand this is quite common. once I made the adjustments in the driver they are much better. thanks jmh

Glad to help! Always remember that a properly working printer will always produce what you feed to it, when too light, just right or dark. The monitor has to match the output in brightness and in color temperature. The C. temp and color is handled during calibration, the luminance you input in the calibration software manually up or down until it matches the print output.

Hi Jose, many thanks for these excellent videos! You mention in this video the subject of matte papers and dot gain - am I right in thinking one should use "standard" print quality rather than "high" to compensate for the dot gain? Is this subject covered in depth in another of your videos?
@cheo19494 жыл бұрын
Yes, correct. Often the driver will throttle back the max resolution you can use because of just that.

@@cheo1949 Hi Jose, I've only just begun to learn about colour management in printing, so I'm working through all of your old videos. Having done more research, I think I had unreasonable expectations of profiling, and clearly further edits are required during the soft-proofing stage to compensate for the fact that, unlike the image on the screen, the final print isn't backlit.

What about this: 4. Setting the Color Correction: (1) Select the Matching tab. (2) Select 'None' for Color Correction. (3) Click 'OK'. ???? I'm starting to understand a little more now, you do the above when choosing an ICC Profiles which you stated in this video. Also, I don't have Photoshop so can I use Canon's Digital Photo Professional to print a standard reference for my Canon Pixma Pro-10? If so, do I still use your standard reference print or another type of picture with a different extension? Reading a lot and trying to learn.

Any time you want to certify your printer or check settings or your workflow you should always use a reference image and not a regular image the reference image is special and created for this sort of work.

Hi José, Again Thank you for your help. as I mention before I did bought the canon Pro 10S.. Calibrated my iMac, as well as calibrated the printer follows everything you taught me with a colour mucky photo device that I had . Strange thing happened. Using photoshop, I added a frame using the regular workflow in photoshop. Canvas ect.. with filled colour (white fill layer} Flatten the layers and printed the image with the Canon pro print software. No matter what I did, the border came out blue, although in PS it looked white ? Any advise !! really strange. Thank you :) be well JM

I have no clue. You are on a MAC and the driver settings for proper color management are completely different to what I am used to on Windows. Is the WHITE fill completely white as in 255-255-255?

You trying to scan from the transfer prints? That will not work. You have to scan the final transfer such as off the actual aluminum sheet you transfer to. So imagine trying to scan off a mug!! So it's not possible. You may be able to scan the patches from aluminum final prints but NEVER from the transfer paper.

Hi! I am very new to printing my own pictures, so can you kindly tell me which Pixma printer would be more user friendly to me between the Pro-10 and the Pro-100 printers? I was told that the Pro-100 would be more suitable for me, since I am amateur with Pro printers
@cheo19497 жыл бұрын
I agree about the PRO-100... If you are in the USA you get amazing rebates for it. 8 colors with Gray for B&W. You can always come here for all the PRO-100 tutorials and demos.

@JoseRodriguez , I just setup my first printer, the Pixma Pro 10, and printed 1× 8.5×11" (on canon pro luster) of a fashion beauty shoot I did last week outside in the snow. I had done slight split toning to the photo to create a warm effect in the background and even out the skintones, but when it printed the skintones were slightly under saturated and a little too white. Should I boost my saturation, in the printer driver? Or the temp itself? Overall the image could use more saturation, I wish I could show you lol, you are so knowledgable on this subject obviously and I would love to have a chat with you brother, if you have time or a patreon or something I would be happy to compensate you for your time and knowledge. I appreciate any help you can give me, The photo was printed from lightroom with no plugin aside from the Print module in LR after initial setup and print head alignment. Sorry for the long comment, keep up the amazing videos, I have been learning a ton from you bro, Its amazing to see someone so Passionate about printing and quality. Also, Upon research I chose to pick "glossy" in lightroom rather than matte for the pro luster because I didnt know which one it would be considered since Luster wasnt a choice. THANK you so much once again, I wish the best to you and yours this holiday season.

I have to first ask you if your monitor is calibrated not by eye but with a calibrator such as a X-Rite Colormunki or i1studio. Have you certified your printer by printing a Standard Image you did not bias by editing it like your personal images? I will be offering one on one phone consultations starting this coming year.

Jose Rodriguez I have my monitor calibrated with a ColorMunki, however I just recieved my printer last night and this was my first print. I set the printing compensation in Lightrooms Print Module to Brightness +5 Contrast +3 for a print this morning, as well as brightened it 1 stop in exposure and intensified the highlights and saturation +10 , and it came out much better, however I would love to know its as close as possible instead of guessing for each print, is there a way to calibrate specifically for the printer? Sorry im such a newb, Im totally new to home printing! Thank you for your response, I am a member of the FB group, and ill check out your patreon for sure!!
@cheo19496 жыл бұрын
You are printing your edified images right??? Did you print the reference image without editing it?? That will tell you IF the printer can print NOT TOO Dark and correct neutral color. If you current prints from your edited images are too dark that is because the images simply are too dark. Your monitor setting when you calibrate should be about 80. Redo the calibration in Advanced mode! Set it to the lowest luminance and D65 default for the white point. When the monitor is too bright you edit your images accordingly. Check the image histogram. It should be full from black to white and evenly distributed.
@Vanderwarkert6 жыл бұрын
Jose Rodriguez histogram is looking great, monitor is at 80, my second print this morning however was much better, I will recalibrate, and although I know i set the printer up correctly... it was hard to find the correct drivers because I dont have a disk tray in my computer, so I just downloaded it from Canon's website and used that version. (after print head alignment of course)

Do you know how many prints you can get when a cartridge is low like an estimate. Will the printer let you print if not enough ink is available?
@cheo19496 жыл бұрын
No clue. You don't say what carts so since they all will have different volumes of ink least when declared low, how could one guess. OEM chips will declare a cart empty before it is actually physically empty.

@@cheo1949 yea ive been using PNGs i'm trying to figure out saving worked on photos but as high of quality as out of the camera or with no loss.

First of all if you open a raw file using the Adobe Raw converter you should never ever convert it to sRGB! Huge loss of information and color gamut. Export to PRO Photo RGB as a tiff or PSD. Set your PS Working Color Space to PRO Photo RGB as well. Lightroom works directly from your RAW files. There is conversion so no loss of info or quality,

This process will not provide a very good print. In the PS print settings, you still have the pro-100 selected in the printer setup, but you are using a Pro-10 printer profile. This is a shortcoming of PS print module. It would have been better if they display only profiles that are used by the printer selected.

+Jimmy C Yes I probably did not switch to the PRO-10 but of course you would have to have borth the printer and the ICC profile match. My mistake in this case. I wich that was the case so mistakes like the one I just did would not occur. I think you guys will get the "Drift" of what I was explaining though.

Which exactly what I've been saying for years. A casual printer should never ever consider printing at home. Inkjet printers regardless what you may hear or think need to be used often. So it's not really the printer's fault but the user.
