The necessary steps are described for the X-Rite i1 spectrometer and the i1Profiler software. The procedure with other equipment is similar. If your profili...

Re: Transparencies with Canon ix6820 not printing
PS: The printer allows only one of the black ink cartridges to be used. This is controlled in the printer firmware: "Pigment black" if the media type setting "Plain paper" is selcted "Photo black" for all other media type settings, e.g. "Transparent" You can t...

Re: Transparencies with Canon ix6820 not printing
Hello, yes, I agree that it could be a problem with bad ink cartridges and I am almost sure that it is not a problem with driver settings. The ink cartridges for Canon have a sponge that "holds" the ink and prevents it from flowing out. In some refill cartridges not enough ink is released ...

Re: Will the gimp plugin work with gimp-2.99
Hello, we haven't tried the TurboPrint plugin with GIMP 2.99 yet but chances are good so please give it a try. It is important to know that the TurboPrint GIMP print plugin will only work with a regular installation of GIMP (.tgz .deb .rpm or compile &install from source), not with a SNAP package.

Re: Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300 Red Ink
Hello, the Canon imagePROGRAF Pro-300 can only be controlled by the printer driver in "Device RGB" color space which means that the printer accepts a RGB bitmap for the page and does the conversion to the actual printer inks (Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Black, Grey, Red, ...) within the printer...

Re: Which icc profile to select for soft proofing
Hello, yes, this is correct. You can use the following soft proof profiles: Photo Paper Plus Glossy II - PP-301 => TS9500-canon_pp201.icc Glossy Photo Paper - GP-701 => TS9500-canon_gp501.icc This is a good approximation. Of course you can use our profiling service to create an individual color prof...

Re: Presets
Hello, the printing settings "presets" are a mechanism of macOS, not PrintFab. In our experience the presets work reliably - if a "preset" is selected in the macOS print dialog, the corresponding settings are also used for the next print job. A known problem is that macOS sometim...

Re: Upgrading my Mac OS. Will I have issues?
Hello,
generally, printing halftones with PrintFab Pro XL works also on Ventura.
Can you describe your problem - e.g. you cannot find the dialog "Special settings screen printings"?

Re: RE-Turboprint 2.15 needed
The sorting may be a bit confusing, at the top are RPM and TGZ downloads and at the end the DEB downloads. The oldest TurboPrint version that is currently available is 2.36-1 from 2015.

Hello Alex, in the PrintFab driver for the Epson ET-2850, the setting Transparency prints with "composite black" = Cyan+Magenta+Yellow. Please select "Paper"="Epson Matte Heavy" instead, this media setting will cause pigmented black ink to be used instead. The ET-2850 p...

Re: System Error when printing on DesignJet using PrintFab driver
Hello, the "system error 79:04" may occur when printing at the highest resolution (2400dpi). Printing at 300-1200dpi should work.
Please let me know if this solves the problem.

Re: What limitations once test period is over
Hello Johnny, after the end of the trial a "TurboPrint" logo is printed on the page, so you can only use it for testing, not for real prints.

Re: Upgrading my Mac OS. Will I have issues?
Hello cabezon37, often new security mechanisms of new macOS versions require adaptions in PrintFab, thus older PrintFab versions often cannot be used on the latest macOS release. You will probably need an update for using PrintFab on Catalina or Big Sur. Note that an update of your license key allow...

Re: Halftone Printing Settings for transparency
Hello Kees,
if you select "multi black" and enable three inks, the inks will be printed 33/33/33 percent. Currently there is no way to change this .
PrintFab bypasses all Epson driver software, the Epson driver doesn't interfere with the halftoning.
