Yes, I have one. I was just referring to the video which, to me, implied that any color surrounding another changes the color of the surrounded color, thus making a "right" choice entirely subjective.

What color would you recommend, given that there is no truly neutral color? A black or grey background would also cause a color shift.

You're kidding, right?

Never apologize for being a grumpy old man. We've earned it.

I think I've uncovered a more serious problem: I showed my son some test prints and he preferred the "bluer" ones because they looked like his iPhone. We may be creating a generation whose color sense is a bit off...

Lr print time brightness adjustment is a guess. You can figure it out by trial and error or you can ignore this feature and set the brightness where it should be in the develop module.

Rule of thumb: Your monitor is probably lying to you. Ignore it to start with. Print the reference images and have the printer manage the colors. Let the print dry for a while. Hours are better than minutes. As the ink dries it may change colors slightly. Compare the print to your monitor and...

I'm a newbie also. And I've got a feeling that it's a lot like learning to ride a motorcycle: The first and fifth years are particularly bad. The first for obvious reasons, and the fifth because you get complacent. (I quit riding in my first because of the pain...)

@mikling, thanks for the profiles. I tried them on plain paper and was pleased; the cyan cast seems much reduced. Red River says they'll have profiles for the 3620 in a couple of weeks. I'm still finalizing my test sheet, which is a standard reference image as well as some of my own. I'm...

I ordered and received a sample pack from Red River. My plans are to create an image montage and print it on several sheets to find my favorites. This, unfortunately, reminds me of being told by my wife to paint a wall "white…"

On my mac, when this happens I need to kill then restart the application using the scanner.

I have some old, very old, HP premium paper that I've been playing with. I remember, perhaps poorly, that images printed with a now dead and gone HP printer (probably dye inks) looked fine. Using it with an Epson workforce (pigment ink) produce blue (cyan?) casts on the image. Is this likely...

Third party cartridges could be patent infringement. But I'm not a patent attorney or even a lawyer...

@turbguy here is the nozzle check:

Not exactly what I wanted to hear about a printer less than 4 months old... I don't really want to fight a warranty battle. Thanks for the print head/nozzle information.

Having a chance to exercise the printer after a couple days of non-use (powered on and idle), the first nozzle check was a mess but subsequent checks went back to the one consistently missing black segment. Quick question about nozzle check patterns: What I see is essentially K,K,CMY,CMY. Does...

Just started using refillable compatible carts with ARC. So, no real experience other that OEM.

I made the switch Thursday (a couple of days ago) and had lots of missing segments initially. That's when I did the majority of cleanings to get it working. I printed a reference image and saw no problems. The next day I printed a small image that looked clean, and in fact was very dark, but...

Besides "none," how many segments can be missing in a nozzle check? My WF-3620 has one segment missing on the black channel. This is after switching to PC inks & cartridges and several nozzle checks and 4 or 5 head cleanings over a few hours. Thanks

I'm a photographer thinking about adding value for customers by doing my own printing and found this place, through @jtoolman's videos, as a good source of nowledge as I wander into the world of print making. Who knows what I'll learn...
