I have done the whole chain again and I think I found the problem, the target print was OK (not tagged with a profile) and read properly, by the way I increased the number of patches from 475 to 540, but the error was that inadvertently I then printed the test picture using the saturation...

Your eyes are not deceiving you, it is indeed dye ink ( Vermont Inkthrift Pro ), I decided some time ago to try dye inks for several reasons : one being that with my old R1800 pigment inks I had too many clogging problems that eventually led the printer into the dust bin (replacement head then...

I am not sure I understand your question, printer profiles can be used in one of two ways, either the printer "driver" uses the profile or the application does, but not both at the same time ( = double profiling ). As PS handles the profiles better than the printer driver, one usually tells the...

But when adjusting pictures it is different, the monitor setting is part of the picture assessment. In the past I used to set my monitor...

Hello everybody I am new here but not a printing newbie ... ;) Still I am new to Argyllcms to generate new printer profiles for my Epson 3880 using a Colormunki Design spectro. My display is calibrated with Argyllcms to 120 CD, and I know the relation between display brightness and dark prints...
