Ergosoft runs only in a PC environment, and is a very compelling RIP due to its layout facilities, ability to efficiently manage small or large numbers of printers, and long excellent experience in color management for standard CMYK and extended gamut inksets. Pricing to add printers and/or...

Thank you for your replies, and especially the affirmation of the robustness of the linearization routine in Ergosoft. I remain looking forward to your future videos.

Thank you for bringing to my attention your comments on G7 in writing. I did look them over- but I am confused about something. I use the Ergosoft RIP and was considering G7 given the claims regarding grey balance. In the process described in the Curve4 manual, I am not sure whether your...

Thank you for making these videos- I am waiting with anticipation to learn about your views of G7. I viewed both your current videos and found them helpful. A suggestion, should you ever consider revising or improving the existing videos, or making one to specifically address one improvement-...

For your specific situation, under macos, you should have no need to fill in LAB values in i1profiler. You should be choosing RGB. If you were using a RIP where you were using i1profiler to provide the icc profile, and you were working with a printer with extended gamut inks like orange, red...

This is actually 5 color- Y, M/PM(PM is like LM)C/PC(PC is like LC), PBk(photo black), MBk(matt black), Gy(Gy is like LK(light black)) You choose one of MBk or PBk as part of a media type selection for K(black), and Gy is essentially an LK(light black). R(red) is the only other full tone ink...

Looks like it should be based on Adobe 99% and GRACOL 2006. You do need to make sure that you can do a good monitor profile with a color measurement device and profiling software.

From another point of view, the GRACOL 2006 icc profile, when viewed in Colorthink Pro against in my case a profile for my NEC PA301, is essentially within the gamut area encompassed by the icc profile for my monitor, with a couple miniscule pieces outside. I would be willing to bet that if you...

With regard to one aspect of this report- the discussion of Pantone spot color performance is in some ways not very meaningful because a CMYK inkset is inherently limiting in reproducing many Pantone colors with less than 3 DE2000 difference. Also, the report mentioned only in-RIP human...

Inks for the 9880 remain available from www.ink2image.com, a long time 3rd party supplier of Epson printer inks as they were the inheritors of Lyson.

I don't know about a mixing formula, but I do know that Pantone Color Manager can export a CGATS file of all the L*a*b* numbers for all the colors in the fashion TCX deck. The L*a*b* number should be the most accurate measurement, under the available D50 or D65 illumination choices.

Are the LAB values exportable from Pantone Color Manager considered authentic and correct?

If you already own an Xrite spectrophotometer(i1pro, for example), Pantone Color Manager will operate at no additional charge.

Is the Fuji Vivid Canvas suited for long-term color reliability given optical brightening agents(whiteness of 108.8) and no protective topcoating?

Is the reason a solvent printer is not considered appropriate for fine art printing because they typically do not offer inksets like CcMmYKkOG? I have seen 3rd party ink providers who provide CcMmYKOG ecosolvent inks. Or are there other reasons?

Regarding expiration of Pantone Color Manager: http://printplanet.com/forum/prepress-and-workflow/color-management/21503-pantone-colour-manager-expired

This information comes from Pantone tech support- To correct this issue you need to do the following: MAC users: 1. Go to Macintosh HD/Users/(username)/ Library* /Application Support/PANTONE/PantoneColorManager 2. From the above location, delete the 'PantoneLIVE' folder 3. Restart...

Actually, Posterprint can directly import the Illustrator file.

When you opened it in photoshop, and then saved it out- what format did you save it in, and did you assign a profile to that file?
