PhotoSmart 8450 aligning the cartridges and color matchingr problems
I have problems with aligning the cartridges and color matching on my PhotoSmart 8450 printer.
Aligning the cartridges
I just replaced a cartridge on my PhotoSmart 8450 printer. I always use the original Vivera cartridges.
After replacing the 343 tricolor cartridge, the 100 gray cartridge suddenly gave smudge results.
I did a lot of Clean cartridges and Align cartridges before getting acceptable results.
The clean cartridges printout still gives small imperfections in the top grids.
Color matching
Most of the time I print on plain paper. Ocasionally I try to print photographs.
In fact my PhotoSmart 8450 never really printed photographs in the right colors.
Always too much blue and too little red... To solve this I decided to use ColorMunki Photo.
But on the Colormunki test print some of the colors are smudgy.
The settings are Paper type (HP Premium Plus Glossy), Quality (Best: 600dpi, PhotoREt), Real Life Photography (everything off), Color Management (I tried ColorSmart/sRGB or Managed by Application).
The result is stripes and or smudgy appearance in some of the colors.
Doing the same on plain paper (Standard or Best; ColorSmart/sRGB) gives good results.
What can I do to solve both problems?
Thanks for helping.
Hi,
It looks as if you have done a lot of troubleshooting already, however it maybe that the cartridge is displaying minor color mix which should be apparent if you try to follow procedure in this support link, the stripes or small imperfections you have mentioned may be linked to partially missing color or colors which could also contribute to the appearance of photographs printing in the right colors.
Hopefully this will give some assistance in resolving the issue.
Thanks
Neil

Evening Out The Brightness and Color of a Set of Images
So I have a set of images, usually between 500-700, all taken in a 20min period or so. Natural light through a window. It's shot handheld with my Canon rebel with a 18-55mm lens. Due to the slight change in light over the time period, the fact I'm zooming in and out, and moving around the subject, I get a lot of value and color variation. See the images below...
My current process is to manually color correct each image so they match in terms of brightness and color. This gets very tedious of course. Could someone suggest a faster, preferably completely automated way to even out the brightness and colors of a set of images like these in lightroom so they all look pretty similar to each other?
Thanks for any help!

Yup, that's one reason I think I need a color correction after the fact method to handle this situation, obviously taking a shot that's mostly in shadow will look different than one where the character is almost all in complete sunlight.
I guess I'm really having three issues here, first is the blue tint that gets introduced when I zoom in, and then second is the natural lightening and darkening that occurs as I take photos of the subject from different angles, and third is the fact since its sunlight the light does change somewhat over the 20minute period.
Hopefully the first issue can be solved by turning off automatic white balance, and I'm still hoping there may be some automated method for evening out the value difference introduced by the 2nd and third issue. Although even if I can just solve the first issue that would save me a ton of time.
Thanks for the info so far.

Hi I am currently have a subscription to PS CC but I don't think I have the latest version. I believe this because I don't get the new welcome screen and don't have new features like the structure and color setting in the content aware patch tool. I have checked for updates and it tells me I have the current version. I check in PS I have version 14.2.1. I also have CS6 installed on my PC, could this be somehow be doing something or am I doing something wrong. Would anyone have any suggestions.

Re: Elements 9 -

I recall doing it initially but can't find any place to redo it.Unless you did it in pse7 or pse 8, then you really can't change the interface colors in pse 9 or pse 10.
The only color you can easily change in the interface of the editor is the padding color around the document by right clicking outside the document bounds. -

How keep the font and color from changing in cells/rows?
I find it extremely annoying that when I remove the contents of a cell, the blank cell no longer retains the font & color settings of what had been there before. This is a problem I have both in day to day use and in starting a new document on the basis of an old one. Every month I start a couple of new documents for the month, and I use the ones of the previous months as the point of departure, since everything is set up. But each time I have to reset all the colors and fonts (I have different colors for each row), and it is time consuming and annoying. Why can't I just set the values of all the cells containing number values back to zero without changing the settings?? Or can I but don't know how?
I never had this problem with Excel or with the Appleworks spreadsheet.
Another problem I have is deleting a single cell in order to align the rows or columns; again, this was simple in Appleworks, and you have the option of the remaining cells moving up or down or left or right. But I can't figure out how to do this simple thing in Numbers.calmeforet wrote:

From my point of view, you are using Numbers the bad way.
Create a template with the wanted attributes and start from the template every month.
So you will have the wanted features which is not the case with your "reuse_an_olddoc" scheme.

It appears that you didn't search in the good area. Searching in the existing thread (as asked by the Terms of use) would have give the response.

My printer says print cartridge(s) missing or not detected. I have a HP Photosmart C4200 & the cartridges have worked in the past. I have popped the cartridges out & back in to get it to print twice, but now that doesn't work. Is the problem in my printer or have the drivers installed on my iMac become corrupted? I have the CD that came with the printer but to reinstall the drivers I would need to uninstall the ones on my iMac. I don't know how to do that. Does anyone know how to uninstall printer drivers? My OS is OSx but I don't know which version. My iMac is 3.5 years old.

How to change the size and color of the basic forms of Visio.
I want to use the basics Visio shapes but with custom sizes and colors.
Would you like to save these settings as a template, so I dont need to change one by one.
Thank UModifying shapes and storing them in a custom stencil is one of the primary strengths of visio. Both David Parker
(http://blog.bvisual.net/) and Chris Roth (http://www.visguy.com/) have pointers on their sites to Visio videos on YouTube that explain many of the basic skills you may be looking
for.

What happened to the confetti and color blade transitions?
Just purchased iwork 09 to see what awesome features would be available in Keynote. There were some new ones, but two great ones are gone - confetti and color blades. Can you get those back?
Welcome to the discussions, j.r.m.
Those two are considered "Obsolete". You'll have to go into Keynote's Preferences under the "General" tab and choose "Include obsolete animations in choices". Then you'll see it re-appear. -
Algorithm to find the area and color of the objects in an image
Hello everyone,
I have some problems in finding the segmented objects once i find the threshold , i want to find the area of the objects in the image . for example i have some lymphocytes in the image and i need to seperate them from the background by labelling them. can i seperate them by using the colour as well . please give some idea .
my code till now is:
int data = -1;
try {
System.out.println("Is the input a FloatImage ?");
m_fi_in = (FloatImage)inputData[0];
data = 0;
catch (ClassCastException cce) {
System.out.println("Not a FloatImage");
data = -1;
try {
System.out.println("Is the input a Volume ?");
m_vol_in = (Volume)inputData[0];
data = 1;
catch (ClassCastException cce2) {
System.out.println("Not a Volume");
data = -1;
System.out.println(data);
// For the FloatImage
if (data == 0) {
// For the Volume
else if(data == 1) {
System.out.println("Entering Volume for segmentation....");
// Get target dimensions
int depth = m_vol_in.getDepth();
int height = m_vol_in.getHeight();
int width = m_vol_in.getWidth();
int region = 1;
// Create a label structure
// Consists of Image and region info
m_label = new Label(m_vol_in);
if(m_label == null) {
System.out.println("Label could not be created");
return false;
// apply the threshold set by user
float threshold = m_threshold.getValue();
float maxi = m_threshold.getMaximum();
float mini = m_threshold.getMinimum();
// label the center of the volume in the region part of label as region 1
m_label.setRegion(m_start_z.getValue(), m_start_y.getValue(), m_start_x.getValue(), region);
System.out.println("Set starting voxel ("+m_start_z.getValue()+","+m_start_y.getValue()+","+m_start_x.getValue()+" to "+region);
// Now process 8 partial volumina starting from a given point in the yz-plane in positive and then negative x directions
// check the neighbours if they are already segmented and set the region in the target volume accordingly
// do so for the whole yz-plane
int x,y,z;
int dir = 0; // the direction of the search. Only initialised here !
System.out.println("Processing Volume in z++");
for (z = m_start_z.getValue(); z < depth-1; z++) {
for (y = m_start_y.getValue(); y < height-1; y++) {
dir = 1;
for (x = m_start_x.getValue(); x < width-1; x++) {
checkRegion(m_label, z, y, x, threshold, region, dir);

How can I change the width and color of the title bar of the JFrame
I would like to use the UImanager to change the look and feel of the title bar on all of my JFrames. How is this possible.
Thanks in advance.I appologize for being rude, and thank you for your response.
The reason I did not respond was that I don't think that your answer solves the question of top level containers (specifically JFrame). I have been researching the net and some of the text books to come up with an answer before I respond. To this point, I believe that the answer has something to do with changing the boundary. If this is the case I'm within four or five hours of the solution, and will publish. If not, back to the drawing board.
