Even if you do everything right when printing your own photographs, it might not be your fault they still don't look good ... it could be that you're a Mac user and you're using Apple AirPrint to connect wirelessly to your printer.
Why is this important?
In this video I show why AirPrint is definitely a No-GO and a USB connection is BEST!
On Wednesday of this week I was up in Stratford Upon Avon to spend time with the great people at Permajet / Imaging Warehouse to film part of my new Printing Class that is due to be available in early April.
I can’t thank the team enough for all the time they gave and the knowledge they shared which was going through Paper, the choices available, how they can affect your image, ICC Profiles and so much more…
I'm not a wise man but when there and going through the importance of choosing the right paper for a particular image, I came up with this phrase...
Basically meaning that the ‘art’ of what we do carries all the way through to the final physical product because of how paper choice has such a big impact on how it looks.
Genuinely excited about sharing this 'Paper Choice' part of the course when it's finally edited.
MASSIVE thanks yet again to Robin, Charlie, Louise, Colin, Brian :) and all for making we feel so incredibly welcome and pulling out ALL the stops to ensure that what was filmed was the best it could be!
Printing can be incredibly frustrating and costly if it doesn’t turn out right.
Despite following the advice of calibrating your screen and using paper profiles, the results just don’t look good and certainly don’t match what you see on the screen.
Good News though…it might not be down to something you’re doing wrong; it may actually be an issue somewhere with the software and / or the printer.
In this video, I show you how we can fix that if you’re using Lightroom as your printing software AND Canon Printers…in particular the newer models.
Enjoy,
Glyn
