I still know the time making photogravure plates with the gelatin coating… We threw some buckets water on the floor, hoping the humidity going up. those where the days!

That’s very good news for the QuadTone RIP. But the MeasureTool from xrite isn’t supported in Lion. And they don’t plan a new version with the same (free) functionality.

Today our studio hit 85 degrees… the humidity has been high in the upper 40% without having to add water to the air. But, the ambient temperature is now too high for reliable printing. We turned the A/C on and it dropped the temp 5 degrees in only 30 minutes and reduced the humidity to the low 30% range. Air conditioning is brutal on humidity… yet too high an ambient temperature and that causes its own problems…

I printed through QuadTone 2.6 to the 7900 today. The calibration target was normal as Roy indicated. After creating 10 ink channel .quad curves, I was able to print a normal K7 output, but unable to print the additional test curves in the O & G inks. But, it appears at least on Windows, that anyone can print K7 curves to the 7900. I was unable to create the K7-7900 on Mac. It’s a start…

These little drops of distilled water will serve as a minor dilution. An ink scientist will tell you that they should be removed, lest the formula altered. But, from experience I can tell you that a few minor drops of distilled water are inconsequential when the carts are re-filled with aqueous pigment inks.

Hi Jon, I’m recently washed my 9800 cartridges but there’s a little water drops inside (distilled). is there any problem with that?

As we get more into Canon we plan to develop a lot more for it… We are realizing that it’s an amazing platform that we’ve ignored for no reason other than the convenience of using Epsons and developing for Epson printers [for so long].

Are you going to be developing re-use inks for the Canon printers? Mainly the 9500 Mark II….would love to see it happen. Thanks so much.
