HI Arno, Unfortunately the CR30 (which I have reviewed) does not work with ChromIQ directly. You will need it dedicated software to scan the patches and use ChromIQ to generate profile (ArgyllCMS). On the economic side there is cheaper option: PrintPrism + Canon Lide 300 scanner, which is a...

Hi Thilo, thanks for the update. Do you know the software works for a simple CMYK office printer as well, like the Epson WF-7840 ? I have done a test many years ago with several hues of black and grey for the CMYK positions and the initial results were not bad, but without QTR.

Is Claude also taking into account to read version 4 ICC profiles ? I am not sure if ChromIQ can write version 4 profiles (I did not check this), but maybe this would be nice.

As promised the partial solar eclipse in Belgium 2026-08-12 Camera: Seestar S50 with 3D-printed solar adapter with Baader Astrosolar ND 5.0 solar filter

Just a preview a few hours before the partial solar eclipse in Belgium. One version with the standard supplied solar filter (orange disk) with the Seestar S50: The version with the superior Baader Astrosolar ND 5.0 filter (white light): You can clearly see the details of sunspots and...

Happy Birthday to you Sebastian :thumbsup

Yes it arrived on time fortunately: For my Canon 300 mm lens: Test image with my tiny Canon 100D: Too bright, decreasing time from 1/100 to 1/3200: Now waiting for tomorrow: Now decreasing to 1/4000 for even better contrast:

With the upcoming solar eclipse this wednesday I printed 2 adapters for my Canon DSLR camera and my Seestar S50 smart telescope: My little telescope (Seestar S50) with a 3D-printed solar finder attached: Unfortunately Murphy's Law strucked again: I ordered a special Baader Astrosolar foil...

Today I did a test on cheap OBA containing cast paper from Action Glossy 210 gsm: Only in the greys I see some difference. The UV-cut device (ES-1000) has slight greenish/yellowish hue in the greys. Maybe I can minimise it with the colprof command. But it seems be pretty acceptable.

Not sure you have already taken notice of the new graphical user interface for ArgyllCMS that Sebastian and Knut are working on: ChromIQ (with help of Alan Goldhammer and me). It is a fantastic graphical shell on top of ArgyllCMS with a few new features especially the new patch generator that is...

I received the device today and tested with chromiq and i1profiler that detects the device as M2. I made a test profile on oba containing glossy paper but due to the UV filter the greys have a bluish teint in broad daylight viewing. Not sure if I could counter this effect with a setting in color...

Today I have found a version D uv-cut i1Pro1 (Fiery ES-1000) device. The device is uv-cut, so I think it will give a yellowish hue in bright daylight for OBA containing papers. So probably I have to use some setting in colprof to counter the uv-cut effect of this device. Because I am using the...

Yes, but only for the profile generating process, not for scanning. That is done with it's own proprietary program and only patch by patch.

Did you try on a Windows machine: maybe it is just a MacOS problem ?

@mavtop : Did you use something like this for your i1Pro1: A direct usb-c to printer cable, or do you use a converter from usb-c to usb 3.0 ?
