Just checked to see if Wolf Faust still active; seems it is according to this recent article. Author uses ArgyllCMS and CoCa for which there is a GUI (Yay!!). https://www.the-ninth.com/blog/scanner-profiling-on-a-budget

It may be possible via ArgyllCMS via Spotread (a bit tedious?) or there may be another way to input values? It may well be an interesting excercise but it is possible to buy IT 8 targets on ebay either printed on Kodak, Fuji or Agfa papers including the target data file e.g. IT-8 cards can be...

Taking the above image at face value it looks like you are missing black inks at least. But it is difficult to make any accurate judgement remotely as there are unknown factors here such as scan quality, monitor calibration, bad profile etc. In cases like this it is useful to use a printer...

Thanks for the update. Without fully understanding the requirements for your chosen print method it seems to me your biggest obstacle may be the existing camera pixel count - of course I could be wrong but.. Obviously a higher MP camera will gain you the added resolution @7"x5" and if you...

Isn't the PPI dependent on and calculated on the Lenticular lens count? You have 720 ppi to play with on an Epson printer! Your image source (camera) may not contain enough pixels to print at your final size without upsampling; this may not be a bad thing as these types of prints are not high...

I believe that your printer should have enough in the way of resolution to enable lenticular prints i.e. resolution capability of 360ppi or 720ppi! Just a final thought from me as being curious I did a quick search on requirements for image resolution for lenticular printing. Most seem to...

Yes PPI is industry standard I only mentioned resampling as if you do not produce an image file that equates to your required PPI at the final size print size the print driver will do this for you which may be sub optimal. The printers Normal and High quality settings relate to printer DPI and...

No conflict it was just unclear if you were referring to PPI or DPI in your post. Now that you have clarified driver reports I understand 👍 500dpi or 500ppi? Effective resolution in the image data (PPI) or in the print driver (DPI)?

Sorry, but I am not clear on what you mean about the transmitted resolution (dpi). The resolution transmitted from the image data in our editing software to the driver is measured in PPI and as such has zero knowledge of printer requirements without us intervening or just allowing the printer...

No, PPI is not the limit of a printer this is purely a measure of how many pixels your image is made up of in the horizontal or vertical directions. For example suppose you have a 6MP camera and the image resolution is 3000 pixels x 2000 pixels. This will allow you to print a maximum image...

Sorry but I have to disagree with you here. You asked about printer native resolution first. The printer has to report its required resolution to the Operating System. In the case of the older professional Epson the driver reports a resolution of 360/720/1440 PPI (newer Epson maybe using...

I still think there is some confusion here or at least the statement can lead others to the wrong conclusion. DPI is a measure of printer resolution and is not related to the image resolution which is in PPI. The figures quoted above looks like you really are referring to the image resolution...

The native resolution would really depend on the number of nozzles in the print head. Epson pro printers I believe traditionally would have 360 nozzles per inch, Canon 300. AFAIK none would have 1440 nozzles per inch. I currently use an Epson SC P800 which is a prosumer model. The 1" Epson...

^^This 👍 I think there is a lot of misunderstanding about printer resolution and image resolution and how it affects final quality of an image Printers typically use two resolutions, one being the print resolution quoted as dots/droplets per inch (DPI) e.g. 4,800 x 2,400 DPI. These figures...

Final update (I think!). I decided to remove the X-Rite software completely from my system as I could not manage to get Argyll working properly - probably due to me not RTFM. Installed ArgyllCMS v2.3.1, initially unable to get it to recognise the i1Studio device. With a lot of messing...

Good luck. I really hope you get an answer

Just a quick update for anyone who may find themselves in a similar position: I thought I would give the Colormunki app a try so I first uninstalled the existing X-rite software rebooted and installed the Colormunki Photo app. All modules seemed to be in working order with the exception of...

From memory the problem is that the Colormunki software recognises that there is a newer addition of the X-Rite software and does not complete instal i.e. under Windows 10. If they are both running on your system then it may be that the Colormunki software should be installed first then the...

Thanks for that. Have tried the Colormunki software without success.
