Hi all,
When I profile my inkjet photopaper, the resulting prints are too yellow. I understand that the optical brighteners in the coating of the paper are the cause of the problem. The manufacturers of the paper add a bit of blue to the coating so that it looks whiter. The blue is not visible for human but the spectrophotometer measures it as too blue and so the profiling software adds yellow to compansate for this.
There is a UV-filter on the DTP70 but it makes no difference if I use it or not. At least, not to my eye... Given the fact that I have to stick to this specific paper, what are my options?
My setup:
Thank you for your advice!

- Should the UV filter in the DTP70 make a difference?
- Is there maybe some software solution for this?
My setup:
- HP Z6100
- Non-HP photopaper
- x-rite DTP70
- Monaco Profiler 4.8.3 Gold Edition
Thank you for your advice!
