So true - So many crank up the saturation, hit the HDR button to the max. So that all the high saturation colours are out of gamut and eventually everything looks radio active. Next step is to complain the print does not look like the monitor. :(
I know, I know. I am a grumpy old man. :)

Trouble shooting colour, profiling and image reproduction problems from a distant or remote location is almost certainly doomed to failure. Too many variables not obvious at the remote location.
I will let others more qualified than myself give a more knowledgeable analysis but cannot resist a...
The good news is that you will probably find it a lot easier than you expect. I know I did.
The danger comes after a few refills and you may start to be too casual and not pay attention. Then carelessness or small errors can creep in. Probably the worst is refilling with the wrong colour...
Hi Jamie,
Let me be the first to say "Welcome". Others will chime in as they login.
Best machine? is a hard question to answer not knowing your needs. Would it be colour art prints, business use, ransom notes, forgeries, etc. :)
Generally the cost of ink and other supplies will rapidly...
Looks very interesting.
I had great difficulty accessing information from their website in English.
Will return for an in-depth look when I have more time.

Here is a summary of the recent ruling. Will leave it to the pundits to summarise the significance in the market place. If any.

False equivalency!
My reply was linked to Jose's OP of a simple table-top UV roller coater style machine.
Your link was to an industrial strength UV 3D spot coater. Chalk and cheese. Absurdity or frivolity is in the eye of the beholder.
Still trying to reconcile the topic of discussion in...
Our frivolous comments are probably because this exceeds the expertise of most of us on this forum. Unless of course, somebody speaks up to the contrary.
My own observations and I know nothing, is based on the one-minute promotional video. That this is NOT an industrial strength machine. How...
Love your image. The lighting, shadows, and placement of the visual elements - perfecto!
It displays all the creativity that left-brained people like me struggle to achieve.

Mikes hypothesis is reasonable given the absence of any facts or information to the contrary.
However, it is still early days and who knows what information will emerge in the future. Could be that the product that is the subject of this thread is a promising start for a solution, or really...
Thanks - I owe you.

At $300 a pop (or poof! - up in smoke). However, if it works properly, in perpetuity, and is reliable it could be cost effective. Still cheaper than one full set of OEM carts.
I am skeptical, but still sitting on the fence. Unfounded ridicule without any testing, evaluation, or relevant facts...
I am guessing a digital gram scale would serve the purpose. If calibrated to two or more decimal places.
Weigh the carts before printing.
Print n copies depending on degree of accuracy required.
Reweigh the carts after printing.'
1-3/n should give the ink used. By colour if necessary.
