Printer/ Paper Profiling

 

Printer/Paper profiling using industry standard x-rite devices.

Every paper has it’s own shade of white, opacity, ink absorbing capacity and ability to reflect a certain amount of light. When cyan, magenta, yellow or black ink hits those papers the resultant sensation created on the human eye, even under the same lighting condition, differ from paper to paper and from ink to ink.

For papers made by printer manufacturers and for a few other types of papers the interaction between the papers themselves and specific inks have been measured and made into profiles we can use.

However, there are many papers that are quite good and less expensive than the big name papers. There are a few ink manufactures who produce high quality inks that can compete with the original printer manufacturer inks. All these need properly created profiles.
