What is the Preferred Monitor Display Profile?

I recently purchased a new EPSON Stylus Photo R3000 and also have an Epson Artisan 810. Both printers are updated and yet each print drastically different from one another. I am so confused at this point from fiddling with the color settings and profiles, etc., that I don't even know what monitor profile to use. I tried to self calibrate but it looks really washed out. Does anyone have suggestions?

Display monitor profiles and perceived differences in print output between your two printers aren't really related to each other. If you're only using one Mac both printers are going to receive the same information from the same photograph or document and printer profile, if you chose one. The differences between the two printer's outputs are a function of the printer, paper, ink, and various settings used in each one.
You can calibrate your iMac's monitor to more accurately match one or the other and create a corresponding monitor profile for each one if you so choose, but that is neither convenient nor ideal. It would be a better idea to use the printer's controls to modify the one printer's color matching profile so that its print output most closely resembles the other's. Those settings are generally found in an option contained in OS X's standard Print dialog and are sometimes called "color settings" or "color mode" or "color enhancement". Then you have to be consistent with your choice of ink cartridges.
There are many ways to accomplish what you want so decide which device is going to be the "master" then make the other two look like it.

  • What is the best Monitor for Video editing & Graphic Design?

    Hi every one,
    I would like to find out what is the best monitor for video editing and graphic design that you recomend, I am trying to buy one but not sure which one is good and not expansive.
    Thanks very much

    I don't want 2 monitors, so a single 27inch model just what I need... plenty of room for PPro, or I can have a Word document and a Text file open and side by side
    John,
    That is personal taste and there is no discussing taste. However, from my perspective, and that is personal, I prefer 3840 x 1080 resolution with dual monitors over 1920 x 1080 with a single monitor, but that is because I very often have Firefox, Filezilla, Dreamweaver and some other applications open at the same time, switching between the Adobe forums, Gmail accounts, Notebook results from the PPBM5 data submissions, PPBM5 form submissions, MySQL access, phpadmin pages to update the database, the PPBM5 results pages and various DW .php pages for the maintenance of our database and switching back and forth between various versions of PR. I occasionally really run out of real estate with all these applications and could not consider a single monitor with only 1920 x 1080 resolution, even if it were a 105" screen. In the future I would even like to have a four monitor setup (with MPE hardware support) in a two by two configuration, so that I can freely move my application screens around.
    If that happens, notice I say if and not when, my preference for a monitor would be something like 4 Samsung F2380 monitors. Small bezel, great display and panel, affordable.

  • What is the preferred way to open a new url in a new window/popup?

    Hi Guys,
    I have an application that requires me to show another URL (Fedex tracking number) once a button is clicked.
    what is the preferred way to do it?
    Should I open a new browser or a popup?
    I would appreciate if you have a code example I can use.
    Thanks,
    Itay

    hi,
    For opening a URL , you could also close previous window and open a new browser.
    Follow the steps :
    -> make an outbound plug in your window.
    -> Add URL of type string as a parameter for your outbound plug.
    ->Do remember to add Component Name in the Properties Tab of View ( othervs Calling Outbound plug of win from view wont b psbl).
    Write the below mentioned code to call a URL  in the OnAction of button :
    DATA lo_zexit TYPE REF TO ig_zexit .
    lo_zexit =   wd_this->get_zexit_ctr( ).
      lo_zexit->fire_out_window_plg(
        url =   'http://www.google.com'                            " string
    here replace ig_zexit with your  ig<applicatin name>.
    Other way around is using Code Wizard ( control _ F7).
    Write the below code in the onaction of button :
    data lo_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
    data lo_api_component  type ref to if_wd_component.
    data lo_window         type ref to if_wd_window.lo_api_component  = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
    lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW
      EXPORTING
        URL            = 'http://www.google.co.in/'
        MODAL          = ABAP_FALSE
        HAS_MENUBAR    = ABAP_TRUE
        IS_RESIZABLE   = ABAP_TRUE
        HAS_SCROLLBARS = ABAP_TRUE
        HAS_STATUSBAR  = ABAP_TRUE
        HAS_TOOLBAR    = ABAP_TRUE
        HAS_LOCATION   = ABAP_TRUE
      RECEIVING
        WINDOW         = lo_window.lo_window->open( ).
    You can choose any way whichever suits your requirements.
    I hope it helps.
    Thanx.

  • What is the preferred virus scan program for iphone? I believe that I have a virus. My phone will come on by itself and it appears to be recording audio. I have read about spyware/surveilance viruses that will record audio and take photos.

    What is the preferred virus scan program for iphone? I believe that I have a virus. My phone will come on by itself and it appears to be recording audio. I have read about spyware/surveilance viruses that will record audio and take photos.

    My phone is not jailbroken.  I don't know what you mean about hacked.   Maybe it is hacked?   This is what is happening: About three times over the past few months I've noticed that my phone while "off" will come on (light up) and the screen shows an arrow towards the bottom; an arrow such that you would see on various "players" in order to "play" video or audio, I've searched my phone and cannot find any app that produces this particular screen though. Once I pick up the phone when this screen myseriously appears out of nowhere and press anything, it goes away and goes to the standard "slider" front page to unlock the phone.

  • What is the preferred anti-virus/malware software for MacBook Air

    What is the preferred anti-virusmalware software for MacBook Air?

    None is required.
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

    Pretty much what you might use if not IPSec.

    What is the preferred API (CQ or CRX) to use to access repositories to perform WCM functions like activate, deactivate, import document, export documents, tagging, etc?

    As in most cases it is a good choice to use the API with the higher level. For CQ and CRX API, CQ is the highlevel API since it is (partially) based on CRX API. In some cases CQ API eliminates some boilerplate code and/or adds some implicit handling.

  • What's the best monitor to pair with the iMac 21.5inch 2013?

    What's the best display for under £150 to pair with the the iMac 21.5 inch 2013?
    In terms of best match resolution dimensions etc?

    I would highly recomend this one: http://www.amazon.com/AOC-i2367Fh-23-Inch-Screen-Monitor/dp/B009V8F700/ref=sr_1_ 2?ie=UTF8&qid=1391319784&sr=8-2&keywords=aoc+monitor
    It is a great monitor and I will be soon buying one for the same computer you have
    It has the same aspect ratio and same resolution but is a bit bigger but with the iMac having 1" borders arround the display they should line up pretty well.
    Good Luck!!

  • HT5219 What are the external monitor requirements that can support having two windows email and safari open side by side?

    I have a 27" iMac at home that supports this but would like to see if I can enable my Macbook air to do the same thing.  I want to find out if this capability can be supported with my Macbook air and if so what are the monitor requirements.

    Usually two causes of that, the first being the windows dpi scaling (most common cause) and the second being your graphics card driver needs to be updated.
    Try playing with the windows dpi settings
    Right click on your Desktop and select Screen Resolution
    Then in the screen that comes up, click on Make Text or Other Items Larger or Smaller
    Then move the slider under Change the Size of All Items to Smaller and restart windows 8
    Also, you can try clicking on Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays, then click on Custom sizing options and drag on the rulers to set 149% and see if that is any better.

    but the mini doesn't fill the screen on any of it's settings.
    which of the above monitor specs do i need to change, when I go looking for a replacement?
    I am hoping to get the replacement from the same dealer - who will refund me the money i paid for the first one.
    PS - I'm using an HDMI cable straight from the mini to the monitor

    couldn't figure out how to edit my post above to add the following information..
    I have another tv/monitor in the house which DOES display the full screen.. it's specs are
    32 in; LCD; HD Ready

    Product Product name.
    ISI-32-900-TVBU .

    Supported Picture Formats.
    480i/p; 576i/p; 720p .
    is it the larger Picture Full HD specs that makes the difference??
    and why is the text "fuzzy" on all the settings?
    and what exactly does "overscanning" do?
    Sorry to be a pest but I spent an elephantful of money on this little mini and I really want it to be properly visible.
    Is the whole problem that I am trying to use a TV/Monitor instead of a proper computer monitor?

  • HT4522 what is the preferred disk erase mode for Time Capsule

    I've been wanting to re-format my Time capsule as I've bought a new Mac Book and currently have 2 backups loaded. Since I've merged data, I wanted to erase and re-use the TC.
    Can someone tell me what the preferred disk erase mode is for TC.

    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit
    Click the Disks tab at the top of the next window
    Click Erase Disk
    You will be presented with several Erase options.....Quick Erase, Zero Out, 7 Pass, etc.
    Quick Erase will only take a minute or two and be fine for your purpose since you are keeping the Time Capsule.
    If you were moving the Time Capsule to another user, the Zero Out option will replace everything on the drive with zeroes. This will take 3-5 hours depending on the size of drive that you have in the Time Capsule.
    7 Pass zeros the drive 7 times, etc.
    BTW, the Time Capsule drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled). This cannot be changed unless you pull the drive from the Time Capsule (voids the warranty), place it in a separate enclosure and use Disk Utility to make the changes that you want.
    Then, you have to reinstall the disk back in the Time Capsule.

  • What are the hidden files displayed when entering "ls -a" in Terminal?

    When you type "ls -a" into the Terminal to display all the files in a particular directory it often displays three hidden files - one call ".DS_Store" which I understand but two other simply names "." and ".." which I have not been able to find any information about. Does anyone know what these are?

    "They aren't actual items"
    Partly true, they can be, and are used commonly as substitutes for the current directory and the parent
    directory. example:
    the command "cd .." will move you inside the parent directory.
    in the example below the command "cd .." moved me from
    "/Users/kj" to "/Users":
    Betsy7:~ kj$ cd ..
    Betsy7:Users kj$
    In the next example the "." is used to direct the path
    to a file in the current Documents directory for renaming (with the mv command):
    Betsy7:Documents kj$ mv ./book.txt ./mybook.txt
    Kj
