Thanks for the data, this is how my T2100 profile with the Netbit paper compares to your Epson Ultrachome and the InkTec Powerchrome inks
The smallest gamut body belongs to my ink collection with the T2100 on Netbit paper, It's actually not too bad for an arbitrary ink mix on a printer with...
O.k. - fine - just send me your profile with the Inktec inks on Netbit paper, I'll like to compare to. Which mode do you use to calculate the profile ?
That's a very comprehensive and interesting test indeed showing how good a 3rd party ink can be. It's as always a question for the user whether and how much he is ready to pay more for some gain in the gamut in a particular color range. The dark blue- violet range was always the range of...
You may need an instrument to measure the humidity, they are typically available via mail order as a combo device showing temperature and humidity. A humidifer would do the job - in principle - but you don't know how long you have to wait. Depending on your residence location you may better keep...
I have the same situation with refill cartridges and the chips for these cartridges for my new T2100 - T40D carts, I only can buy one-time chips to stick them onto refill cartridges, a resetter is not available to reset OEM cartridges, it is the same situation with the P900 as you describe it...
Is this a genuine Epson cartridge ? If so Epson support should be able to help you. How old is it - you should claim warranty with the dealer. If that's a 3rd party cartridge you might claim warranty with the dealer as well but he might give you some excuses if he denies warranty.
Both the Canon TC-20 and the Epson T2100 offer the selection of various papertypes - some well known to regular visitors or members in this forum like matte or glossy papers - but since these printers are targetted to architects and graphic ads designers there are more paper types listed in the...
Both the Canon TC-20 and the Epson T2100/T3100 come with an autosheet feeder which let you use the T2100 as a desktop printer for papers in the A4 - A3 format, the sheet feeder holds about 50 sheets normal paper, it's less for thicker papers. Switching the paper source - roll paper or sheet...
Printing the color gride is part of the profiling process - you print a color grid with 100 - 3000 color spots, you scan all the color patches , and the profiling software created the actual printer profile, you can do that with a free ArgyllCMS softwre or with commercial packages like ccStudio...
I must admit I'm still not getting the issue, but let me just mention one issue - there is a flag 'profile type' in the profile header which declares the use of a particular profile or color space. Only icc profiles with the profile flag 'prtr' will be used when it comes to printing - these are...
I'm not really getting it - please read the older postings - AdobeRGB is not a printer profile but a color space so it won't be available as a printer profile for a specific printer. You probably have an option somewhere to select between AodbeRGB or sRGB, and the driver uses the Canon printer...
I got familiar with the handling of the T2100 - driver settings - inks - paper loading etc. I can say that the T2100 comes over as easier - simpler to handle than the Canon TC-20 , the T2100 does much less internal activity than the TC-20 , and the use of the user panel on the top is much better...
You already got so far to find the 'cartrdiges' on the printhead carriage, these are called dampers. There are reasons that they go empty - one could be the outgassing of the inks - what type of ink are you using - original Epson or some 3rd party ? you can do one thing - via the driver or the...
the print quality of the Canon TC-20 is good - very good for a 4 color printer, I tested lots of driver settings and profiled several papers, that all went very well - with roll paper or via the sheet feeder, there is no point at all I would critique, it's the user interface I didn't get along...
My Epson SC-T2100 arrived, I got it installed pretty easy, it is printing with the setup cartridges as delivered, I'll go and profile my roll papers in the next time. The printer does not do much internal activities between commands, it is much more responsive than the Canon printer.
The printer...
Tks for keeping us updated; it's an aggrevating approach by the printer manufacturers to make refill pretty much impossible or to find out which method still may work.
Don't mix inks in a cartidge, yoiu may install a cart with dye inks and then run a deep clean or whatever other stronger cleaning command is available via the driver - like a normal clean and a strong clean- but that varies between printers and companies. If you need one-time chips Brother has...
Did you re-install the driver in Win 10 - with prior cancellation in W 8.1 ? . If not remove the printer in W 10 and re-install the driver. You may have to de-activate driver signature at start-up before you install the driver
There are plenty instructions on the internet how to do that -...
