How do I calibrate the monitor to the printed photo for equal color tone and brightness?

Where in the program do I calibrate the monitor color to the resulting printed color. My printed photo is much duller and "blacker" than the monitor. Other color programs has a setup section to plug in the monitor's ICC profile along with the printer used so the resulting printed photo is very close to your adjusted photo on the monitor.

I just got my laptop and I'm a photographer. It is very important to get my laptop similar in color to my photos. So when they are printed they look similar to most basic commercial printer (Walgreens etc) I had no problem on my old computer. My Satellite seems very bright and the people looked washed out. I used th ctrl, alt f12 key and there was a contrast adjustment. I just can't seem to get a nice natural color from the computer. Can someone let me know what they use or what looks good to them. The factory default seems way to bright and people look to bright?? Thanks so much in advance...

How to find out the printer name for the Idoc

Hi guys
I want to find out the printer name for the Idoc,,some default printer is attached for one idoc,then how can we see the printer name for this idoc.

Hi,
For ALE/IDOC the medium will be either ALE or EDI but not printer.So it might be wrongly attached.As such there won't be any printer attached to idoc.

How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

Hello,
I am using HttpURLConnection to establish a HTTP connection . The connection pass through a proxy, and it requires security.
I know that I can set the proxy settings in the system properties, and this works perfect.
But I don't want to set the proxy settings in the system properties, because this proxy settings will be for ALL the URLs, and I just want for a few URLs.
How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

How do I change the print orientation for PDFs with mixed orientation pages?

I'm sure this is a fairly basic and easily solvable issue, but I've been searching for a solution and can't find one for the life of me.
The issue: I'm printing a PDF that will be bound book-style, and the file contains pages with mixed orientations (both portrait and landscape). When I print the file, the landscape pages point the wrong way, to the left of the spine, when they should be pointing down to the right of the spine. I've adjusted the print settings for multiple test rounds, and nothing seems to work. Here's a visualization of the problem (apologies for the bad Paint art):
What the book is doing now when it prints:
What I need it to do:
Here's the caveat: I cannot just rotate all the landscape pages counter-clockwise in Acrobat for ease of printing, because it would remove the ability to scroll through the file quickly in Reader or a Web browser, and the same file needs to be both easily readable digitally AND print correctly.
Is this adjustment a print setting? Is this a tool I'm overlooking within Acrobat? Is this outside the scope of what is adjustable? All advice is welcome, and please feel free to ask any follow-up questions if I explained my problem unclearly.

If you are trying booklet printing, try to rotate the pages as needed before you print to the booklet. If you are print booklets without using professional imposition software, then Quite Imposing or Quite Imposing Plus should be considered. I believe they offer a demo version.

NI9203 - Need to know how to set up the FPGA code for multiple NI9203 modules and how to calibrate the data

Hi. I'm using the NI9203 module to detect pressure, temerature and flow rate of water in a cooling system. I have 17 different inputs coming in therefore i'm using 3 NI9203 modules. I've used the example provided with labview as a base for designing my code. The example can be found here : Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.0\examples\CompactRIO\Module Specific\NI 9203.
I've had no problems when testing this code out for a single NI9203 module but when i add code for 3 modules the code will not compile as my resources are over mapped. Is there a simpler way to program the FPGA code.
That said how do you go about calibrating the data that's received from the module. Preferably i'd like to write a vi to do the calibrating. Just need help on how to go about writing this vi

Hi havok,
Firstly, I would use constants to configure the modules, it'll save some resources on the FPGA. I'm not typically changing the settings on the fly, so using constants whenever possible helps. I would also take a look at the following KnowledgeBase article on other changes you can make to the FPGA VI to compile the code:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/311C18E2D635FA338625714700664816?OpenDocument
The best changes you can make are to use fewer arrays and front panel elements. This can be done by using a DMA FIFO or constants on the block diagram.
Now actually calibrating the data will require you to do it on the host side. There is an example VI called Binary to Nominal that changes the raw data to something more useful for datalogging, display, etc. It can be found in some of the example VIs, or in the following link:

How do I use the same Itunes for both my IPOD and IPAD?

How do i use itunes for both my ipod and ipad? and have everything on both of them.

You can connect one of them to your computer's iTunes, select it on the left-hand side of iTunes, and then on the right-hand side select the Music tab and choose what to sync to that device - you can then connect, select and sync the same content to your other device.

Photosmart 8230. How do you Remove the print heads for cleaning?

Hi guys, I have a Photosmart 8230. After a few lines of printing the black ink fades to almost nothing, all the colours are perfect. There are no error messages. I have done the self cleaning and alignment procedures and wasted a lot of expensive ink. The test page comes out with streaks on the black only. It has been suggested that I take the print head out and immerse it in hot water as a last resort. The question is, how do I remove the printhead? or should I use it as a sea anchor!!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I just did this to a HP Photosmart 8250 which is in the 8000 series range. I assume they are similar. I was an appliance repair man and have done a lot of other tings in my life, so I decided to take a shot at repairing my 8250 rather than junk it. For 3 Years it was great, only one paper jam, and fast great photos, so I didn't want to give up on it. HP will not repair printers for us, I think because it is too labor intensive, and they can sell a new one for what it would cost.
I actually fixed my HP Photostat 8250. Its working but the color printing is not as good as it was, yet, but I am hoping that will improve as all of the colored inks work their way through the system.
Taking one of these apart and putting it back together is like a Chinese puzzle, so its appropriate that they are made in China. Most of the parts inside can be easily damaged if you are not careful. The covers have very clever ideas to their design and how they snap in place. Take your time with the covers and use small tools.
Getting it back in working condition is another matter. There is a 6 circuit pump and more than a few feet of tubing. I had the side covers off while I tested it and this pump seems to work in both directions. This pump is inside the left side cover. There is another motor with a timing wheel of some kind that stops and starts in both directions at the same time the printhead carriage is whipping back and forth printing. There are other motors also. These things are ingenious. It is surprising that I bought it for less than $100 on sale. It looks like a $1000 piece of equipment inside.
It would probably be a good idea to not remove the left side cover, but if you do, be very careful around the clear timing wheel. it looks delicate. Below is from an email I sent to a friend and I am revising it to make sense. Remember this is something that really requires training to do this, but I see people today that have the guts to tackle all sorts of projects, so for what its worth, and you asked.
Under the right side cover is a motherboard, with a bunch of cables plugged into it, small, larger and even ribbon cables. I found it necessary to remove the motherboard. I had a bit of experience working on Canon printers and I would also suggest you take digital pictures as you go so you can view them on your PC. I am also going through this because I don't like being told we can get anything repaired correctly today, its ridiculous that these printers have become just more throwaways. If you want to do this, as a guide, I must have spent 8 to 10 hours doing this, but now I could do it again in 2, that is the learning process.
Once you get the top off the printer, you will see the printhead carriage. The carriage will be to the right side. The printhead is retained by two screws at the front, (take pictures) a spring clip at the rear and two screws that hold a plastic cover over the six ink hoses that plug into the printhead, its a manifold strip affair. You have to unplug the manifold to remove the printhead, but now I am not 100% sure its necessary to remove the printhead? The ink gunk you will see after you move the printhead to the left is no doubt most of the problem.
Probably after the hot water treatment as described below, the built in printhead cleaner will be able to resume cleaning the printhead, after the hot water cleans the gunk from IT.
I removed the printhead like I say below, but first do this. Under the printhead there is a little carriage with a patch of foam rubber that cleans the print head nozzles.This little device works back and forth while cleaning, but while it is parked, with the printer off, it is forward and you won't be able to move the printhead. Use a flashlight to be sure and you will see how to push the cleaner carriage to the rear and then move the printhead carriage to the left. THEN, you will see the gunky ink mess that has accumulated. This gunky mess I think is the main problem. There are also some felt pads below the cleaning device to absorb some of the ink gunk. I don't know how the HP techs do this, but I used the hot water method below, I had nothing to lose. I would move the printhead first and then you can decide about removing it. I would make sure not to get any of the electronics wet and why I removed the motherboard and why I say take photos. Its hard enough to remember where the different screws alone go, when you are doing this. It can be done, mine is working, even if not perfectly, YET. You need to be very careful with your fingers, because it is hard to find space to hold onto the printer and whay it might be a good idea to not remove the left side.
They are so complicated, its just a matter of time before they get gunked up with ink and the printhead begins floating in the mess. I had nothing to lose so I removed the printhead, carefully, taped up all the hoses so they didn't dry out, Then I removed the motherboard to keep it from getting wet, THEN I held the messy ink end under the HOT water in the laundry tub and flushed out enough ink to dye a bathtub full of water. The hot water worked well. Then I let it all dry out. There are some delicate procedures to all of this and it takes time. I think that is why its very hard to find anyone to fix them. Its labor intensive and probably why HP won't repair them. The print section is the problem, and why I won't buy an All in One printer, Fax, and Scanner. I do buy the extended warranty's now. If you tackle this, take your time, take photos, and good luck. By the way, the 8250 uses O2 print cartridges, is that the type of printer you have, but a lot of this applies to other printers and other brands, and I bet I am not the only one to do this. Before I started this the diagonstics showed no problems, so I assumed it was the the ink aspect of the printer, and not an electronic of mechanical problem. I hope this helps.

How can I use the bridge photos that are thumbnail size and place in Photoshop to edit, etc? The size is too small, - how to enlarge without blur?

When I use Bridge to transfer a photo into Photoshop, the size is thumbnail. It is too tiny to edit into Photoshop. How to enlarge without blur?

That is the actual size of your image file. 48 x 38 is very small.
That is not a Bridge or Photoshop problem.
It is a very small image and you cannot enlarge it more than x 1.5.
If you want a large photo you must ask for it from whoever gave it to you, or take a bigger photo if it is yours.

Using CS-6 and printing to Epson 4880 Printer will pause about 20% of the way in on the print job for 2-3 Sec and restart. At that point it makes a darker band in the print. I have used other software to print with and id dosn't do it only in photoshop.

Any one have a idea on the problem??

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like exact print and spooler settings.

I have lost my iphone 3GS. It was backed up to my macbook pro using itunes. I now have a new iphone series 4 (china model). How can I access the backup information for my old phone and put it on my new one?

Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.

How do you calibrate the iPad battery?

How do you calibrate the iPad battery and is it necessary to discharge battery 100%. I have the 3 rd generation iPad, it has been almost a year since I purchased it and the battery when fully charged reads 100%. Recently, I visited my local Jump Plus store and the staff said I should drain the batteries on my iPad & iPhone completely until they are dead and recharge once a month. Is this accurate? It is my understanding that you should not drain the batteries completely? Also, is that the same as calibrating the battery?

For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
