Printing process used for iPhoto prints?

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what printing process is used when ordering enlargements through iPhoto?
I've placed one of my photos in a international exhibit (yay!) and in preparation for the show, they want to know the printing process for inclusion on the display card. Is it a Chromogenic print, or a Gelatin silver print, or an Ultra-Chrome archival digital print, or an Archival Pigment print on watercolor paper, or a B&W Fiber print, or a Platinum print, etc...
I know that the print order was any of the above, but I'm wondering how I should reply to this request. Is it just a "Digital Print on photographic paper"? Or is there some more accurate way of describing the print process?
Thanks!!
-- John

This is the info from Kodak Print services:
http://www.kodakgallery.com/HelpAboutPrints.jsp?#printing
"We print your photos on high-quality Kodak paper, a resin-coated, silver-halide color paper optimized for digital printers. A light source inside our digital printers exposes the photographic paper pixel by pixel. This process mimics traditional photography, in which light from the subject exposes photographic film inside of a camera."
If you want more info about their archival process, you could try sending them an email.

How do I find out the printing protocol used for a printer?

In System Preferences > Print & Scan, double-click a printer and click on the Printer Setup button.
Under the General tab, in Snow Leopard it used to list the printing protocol / url used to connect to a printer. In Lion it doesn't show that information anymore. Is there a way to still find out what protocol the print queue is trying to print via?
Thanks…

Use the web interface to the printing system. Go to http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/ and click on your printer. The protocol will be part of the Connection information.

Best way to prepare photos for iPhoto printed book

Hello,
I was wondering what would be the best way to prepare photos for iPhoto printed book on a Macbook Pro so to achieve the most realistic results to what's on the screen
ie. which software should I use to change photos from RGB to CMYK, photoshop or iPhoto itself. I'm guessing maybe the autofix feature in iPhoto? (I don't have Aperture)
Secondly, which monitor color setting should I set the screen at? I'm guessing it's either Apple RGB or Colour LCD, maybe even ColorMatch RGB?
Any any other tips that people can give in achieving the most realistic results to what you have on the screen when your printed iPhoto book gets sent back. I don't want the mid tones to disappear or become too bright because the gamma and color settings were different to what they use at the other end.
Many thanks.

Hi,
The situation has changed a little, our original photos are in RAW format and some of them are slightly over saturated in the higher tones.
I've read on other threads that it is a good idea to run the 'Enhance' tool on all photos before sending the iPhoto Book away.
Since iPhoto's 'Enhance' tools seems to do a lot of helpful things like sharpen, adjust the levels, etc it also seems to notch the contrast up and this would prove destructive for the lighter and darker tones not captured by the camera's dynamic range.
So as I've been advised it's best to use Apple's own tools before sending the iPhoto Book away, so I'm going to download the trial of Aperture.
Does anyone have any more recommendations on which monitor colour profile setting to use etc. I've also read that iPhoto prints best from JPEGS so the RAW will obviously need changed. Will Aperture automatically save to Profile name: Camera RGB Profile after I've done some editing there?
What would be the best way to prepare RAW images in aperture where some of them might need an Image Overlay in Photomatix then imported back to Aperture for printing an Apple/iPhoto style Book?
Many thanks

My iPad shows a message "Cannot find AirPrint printer". I used to use my iPad to print materials using HP wireless printer D110. Now it does not want to print. Is this because I am now using IOS 7? What should I do to solve the problem? Help please.

Restart your WiFi router and printer by removing power for 30 seconds.

I can't add an older airport express to OS 10.7.5? Want to use for wireless printing and iTunes.

I'm using an Airport Extreme model A 1301 for my home's wireless network. I have three of the older Airport Express model A1084, which I was using for remote speakers for iTunes and for a wireless printer set up, but discontinued using them at some point. I currently have OS 10.7.5, and I could have sworn I was using that OS the last time I used the A1084s, but maybe I updated to it afterwards, I can't remember. At any rate, I've plugged one of the units in, look for it in Airport Utility, and get a message "this version of airPort Utility doesn't support this base station. Use airPort Utility 5.6 to configure or manage this base station. AirPort Utility 5.6 is available at AirPort Service and Support." I go there, download the program, install it, and get a message "The installation failed. The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance." Am I in a catch-22 here - am I not able to use the older A1084s because I need airPort Utility 5.6, but I can't use airPort Utility 5.6 because I have OS 10.7.5? Does this mean I may as well throw these older A1084s away?

If you have not already done so, I suggest that your start over on the AirPort Expess "from scratch" by performing a Factory Default Reset and then attempt to configure it to join the network again.
Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ
If you have an older Express, make sure that you are not trying to configure it to connect to the 5 GHz network, as it is unable to do so.
Assuming that the name of the wireless network, wireless security setting and password on the Express match up with the AirPort Extreme, the Express should "join" the network if it is working correctly.
If you are still having problems, all that you really can do is try the default reset a few more times. If still no luck, the Express....which is at least 5-6 years old or older, may likely need to be replaced with a new model.

Print quality / resolution for iPhoto books

Hi -
I am getting ready to upload my first iPhoto book for printing, and a colleague told me to beware of a potential issue. After searching these forums, and searching Google, I found that people in the past (perhaps prior to iPhoto '08?) have had print quality problems when printing 8.5 x 11 books vs. 6x10 books.
Basically, we are creating an 8.5 x 11 book and will have several books printed by Apple. At some point in the future, we will make similar books at the 6x10 size. Will the photos that are included in the books print at similar quality?
Thanks -

I have ordered books in the past that were made up of photos 1600 x 1200 pixels in dimension and they came out fine. HOWEVER, I had no pages with a photo filling the entire page as Larry warned about.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How do i sign up and what email address do i use for my printer do i make a new address for my print

HP photosmart premium all in one printer How do i set up for email to my printer do i need to make a new email just for the printer or use my email address

Hi jsavat,
You can change your printer's email address from the main page of the ePrint Center site with these steps:
1. Log into the ePrint Center page if you haven't already done so.
2. Click your Printer's tab, and then click "Change" next to your product's e-mail address.
3. Type an e-mail address in the dialog box. The e-mail address can be 6 to 30 characters, and can be a combination of letters, numbers, an underscore, and up to two dots.
4. Click "Check". The ePrintCenter system checks if the e-mail address is available.
5. If the address is available, click "Save".
Let me know if this helps.
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

Wireless Printing Set Up for HP Printer

Hey everybody, I am trying to set up a HP Officejet J6480 Printer on a wireless network, and the instructions that come with the printer are giving me nothing but problems. Does anybody have any instructions on how to set up this printer that are better then the junk ones that came with the machine?
Thanks!

I have exactly that printer. I would say that the setup of the printer and wireless went surprisingly smoothly (I have bad experiences with HP), but I agree that the instructions are confusing. What I did was inserting the disk and following the instructions there. Here are some hints that may be helpful
I first set it up on a MacBook running Tiger. I just used the supplied CD and followed the instructions and it worked smoothly. Two points of confusion
- The getting started guide says to install the software first, and then connect the printer, but the wireless setup guide states to connect the printer first and then install software (for Macs). I opted for the latter, and that worked out.
- The instructions says to add the printer to the printer setup utility. However, it was already there. I decided to add it again. The documentation says to add it using "HP IP printing." The closest was on option saying "hpip," and that worked.
I then set it up on a MacBook Air running Leopard. Again it when smoothly, except for some point of confusion.
- The documentation does not explicitly say how to set up a second computer. Do you connect it through USB at first again? It turned out that once it's set up as a wireless printer, it shows up as a "bonjour" wireless printer on additional computers, and one just has to choose that to set it up.
- I tried to press the button for "printer setup utility" to add the printer at the appropriate point in the installation process, and nothing happened. After some web research I found out that Leopard does not have a "printer setup utility" but instead has that functionality as part of the system preferences.

How to print Spool requests for cheque printing sequentially

Dear All,
I am making vendor payments and printing cheques using F-58. It automatically creates a spool requests at the end of the transaction. When i complete all my payments and go to SP01 for viewing spool requests, the last request appears at the top of the list.
If i select 3 consecutive requests and print them at a time, the last request gets printed first on the first cheque number and the first request gets printed on the last cheque number.
This results in anomaly in the cheque number assigned in the system and the printed cheque as the last payment is printed on the first cheque.
I am using dot matrix printer with page format fixed for cheque specifications. The cheques are printed properly as per the format except the order of printing.
Kindly let me know how to print multiple requests sequentially from the spool requests list such that the spool request number printed matches with the serial cheque numbers.
Regards,
SAP_2009

Hi,
I understod your issue.
Whenever you posted multiple payment documents, and after that if you want to take cheque printouts sequentially by using more spool requests.........there is a way to sort out this issue.
1) Select all of your spool requests and click on Sort in ascending Order (CtrlShiftF5) and click on Print directly (CtrlShiftF8). By doing this you will get the cheque printouts sequentially according to your payment document sequence.
Hope this will help you
Assign ********, if it solved your problem.

Hi Kumar,
Let me know. is the quantity 1000.00 is fixed? if so thn you can achieve the requirement.
For example:
There are A-material with 20000.00 quantity thn u can first divide the quantity with 1000.00
v_ex = 20000.00/1000.00=20.
thn you can repeat the print of the smartform for 20 times by passing the parameter to form fm.
Please reward if useful.

Select the printer tray using the Java Print Service with JDK 1.4.2

Hello,
I have got a problem with 1.4 Printing. I would like to specify the printer tray for printing on Windows platform (XP and NT4.0). I am trying to use the attribute javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray class (ex. MediaTray.BOTTOM).
Howerver, I can control the printer tray if I use the PCL driver of the printer. If I user the postscript driver I am not able to control the printer tray. I can reproduce the problem with 3 different printers (HP, Lexmark and Nashuatec).
I used the getSupportedAttributeValues to check the supported values of the Media
Media med[] = (Media[])service.getSupportedAttributeValues(Media.class, null, null);
for (int k=0; k<med.length; k++) {
System.out.println("Name : " + med[k].getClass() + " - Value : " + med[k].getValue());
With the PCL driver I have the following output and I can control the printer tray.
Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 0
Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 2
Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 4
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 0
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 1
With the postscript driver I have the following output and I cannot control the printer tray
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 5
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 6
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 7
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 8
Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 9
As I must use the postscript printer, can someone help me?
Thanks.

Hello,
Can you tell me how it's possible to selet the tray using the PCL?
I print on the following way:
PrintService[] services = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null, null);
AttributeSet aset = new HashAttributeSet();
aset.add(new PrinterName("\\\\107208\\SBE08111", null)); // select printer
......Now I tried to add your code and I get the following output:
0: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 40
1: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 41
2: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 45
3: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 42
4: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 4
5: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 5
6: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 27
7: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 46
8: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 59
9: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 60
10: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 55
11: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 38
12: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 16
13: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSizeName - Value : 57
14: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 0
15: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 2
16: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 1
17: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 6
18: Name : class javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray - Value : 4
19: Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 0
20: Name : class sun.print.Win32MediaTray - Value : 1
It's a printer with to trays, so I suppose the last two lines are important, but I'm not possible to effectively select the tray I want to print..

Do adjustments made for one print size hold for other print sizes?

Hi,
Other than re-adjusting for sharpness and/or definition, can we go from one print size to any other print size when using the exact same paper from the exact same manufacturer?
Thanks,
Raphael

Carolyn -
Thank you for your respose of 5/1/09 -- sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
1.) I tried your suggestion, but the problem is that Apple and HP have worked to include all/most of the HP software into OS X v. 10.4.11 and beyond. I did not find in my user/.../Library/Preferences .plist files directly referencing my HP 990 Cse printer, which was the only printer not displaying the Printer Dialogue Box.
Open your User/..../Library/Preferences to see the list of .plist files for HP and other manufacturers.
The open the [top level] your-hard-drive/library/Printers/HP to see the [root=basic] files which, I believe, are the actual OS X system files which are on the original System CD or are downloaded for the updates.
2.) I finally got the Printer Dialogue Box for the HP 990 Cse to work --
a.) I ran the OS X Printer Setup Utility app.
b.) I then dragged the icon for the HP 990 Cse printer to the trash; and emptied the trasn.
c.) Restarted the OS X.
d.) Ran the OS X Printer Setup Utillity app again
e.) When the HP 990 Cse did not appear in the list of printers I clicked the "Add" icon.
f.) I selected to add the HP 990 to the Printer List
g.) Nothing happened when I tried to access the HP 990 Printer Dialogue Box.
h.) I did a restart.
i.) I then did a print job using the HP 990.
j.) When the HP 990 icon appeared at the right end of the dock, next to the trash, I grabbed it and dragged it to the place in the dock where I wanted it to reside.
IT WORKS JUST GREAT NOW !!!!
Thanks for your help, as you helped me consider the problem at a deeper level.
