Grandad35 I always assumed from yours and other posts that there may be other things happening when you select the print button. If you have not got a specific ICC profile I assume the printers print engine takes charge? You mentioned about removing some Canon Programs EX?. I mostly use HP or...

Thanks for that unfortunately it looks as though unless you have a spectro. RogerB answer it will not help you very much. I suspected as much but they are very expensive, a lot more sometimes than the printer you are trying to sort. A lot of people obviously purchase a colorimeter but it...

Now I have calibrated both laptop/desktop monitors with my Xrite Display 2 I need some advice for the next logical step. I have in the past downloaded test images Getty/Digital dog/Northlight and printed them out on various papers (not got much Canon). and they looked pretty good but what was...

I have used Avira for 4 years it is very reasonable (lot cheaper than Norton) I personally find Norton a bit annoying with its pop-up messages. However No.1 Son rates Norton and he is the computer expert in the family. Had Kaspersky but did not get on all that well with it. Avira updates...

I know been watching the E-bay offerings I note they are not getting many takers and a lot of the Vendors have low E-bay history. Some offer Global posting which includes import duty, whether that is the same as VAT not sure, probably not. Whether it is worth risking saving about £125/150 and...

Very useful test The Hat I have saved to my hard drive for further tests. I also printed the file I have got solid colours but colours printed are somewhat different and certainly lighter in tone. This is of course compared to the computers display. I have tried with this and other files to...

The Hat I did not realise this amount would be added. I think I misunderstood statement all taxes on shipment included (or similar words) because there are so many on the E-bay UK site I assumed that Brits would be buying them, and by now migrated onto this forum for help.

Thanks PeterBj for the information . I assume you would not get a guarantee if problems arose? It is a question I suppose of how the cheapest UK supplier relevant to the USA price and risks in transport.

I will try and answer as best I can The Hat yes I agree heavy grain when magnified so it would not stand being enlarged very much, I assume the original was a larger file before being converted to a JPEG and have a very much smoother gradation. PeterBj Yes the original appears redder but bear...

The Pro-100 is obviously a great printer. I am seeing it being offered on E-bay at very attractive prices. Some but not all will ship to the UK. Probably a stupid question but can this printer be used in the UK? I realise you will need to have to step down the power supply but now a resetter...

Pleased to report i1-2 Display now loaded and working but only tried the easy method so far. The cure was to un-install the version I had downloaded from the CD provided which was supposed to be v3.6.2 go to the xrite website and download again the version you have kindly highlighted above. In...

1. The software is called eye-one labelled for windows/mac O.S. The version I have is 2.6.2. there is a slightly later 2.6.3. but strictly for Mac. and I assumed the disc included the drivers?. 4. Yes I have looked at some of these videos and followed their instructions with some success. I have...

Great post with excellent pictures. I previously had HP 5360 which used the 364. Not easy to fill and I had a print head go, but fortunately under warranty so when I got my new print head and starter carts I sold the printer. If I had better knowledge at that time I would have kept it. It was...

Attached is my usual test of colours missing after cleaning/nozzle tests. It is a standard picture from Windows library of a high quality. This was printed on HP premium photo paper. I have looked at it with my magnifier and cannot find any faults. I accept that from the last nozzle post there...

I do not know how The Hat was able to enlarge/emphasis the defects but it took me a size 5 magnifying lens to see them. Other nozzle checks since, more or less confirm the position of the Magenta missing nozzles? I assume. I could only find 1 small one at the right hand end on the cyan near the...

Thanks for that will do so if I manage to get it working, not tried again today

The device came with 2.6.2. software installed there is now 2.6.3 but only for MAC seller maintains he tested it on his MAC computer before he sold it. I have no reason not to believe him. It will be a windows O.S. glitch somewhere. It something to do with not completing the driver...

See what you mean PeterBj but the original has not transmitted very well. I have the original in my hand and all 3 cyan/magenta stripes are well defined and the text is the grey. I tuned it up a bit in Navigator but it certainly looks a lot weaker in my post. Will try another enhancement...

Thanks to all for your detailed reply. This is very technical area of which I know little. Because I wanted to keep my initial expenditure low I bought a i1-display2 from E-bay big mistake. At present cannot get either of my Windows7 64 loaded computers to load the hardware. Windows starts the...

Sorry messed that upload the post above is the current state of my nozzle checks. Looks fine to me am holding the NEW compatible carts in reserve and see how things play out. Another thought instead of just shoving another cyan cart in when it gets low but refill this one which seems to be...
