Re: Ink Limit and UCR on Profiles

Hello, for best print quality, it is not recommend to go below ink limit 200. If you specify a lower ink limit, it is possible that dark red is printed with a bit of black ink in the profile target. It is not certain if black is actually used in dark red later when printing with the color profile ...

Re: Color capabilities comparison

Hello, I am sorry for not replying earlier and that adjusting the ink saturation is such a "trial and error" process.

The difference in Gamma should not be noticeable in real world photos but maybe in strong colors like a company logo with a specific Pantone color.
It looks as if the PrintFab ...

Re: Epson ET-8550 | Additional Settings

Hello Doug,

the quiet mode is currently not supported, for thick papers you can set the "Platen Gap" setting to "Large". Please let me know if this setting is not sufficient for your paper or envelopes.

Re: Canon vs TurboPrint ICC Files

Hello. You are right, the high ΔE are probably caused by the fact that ICC profiles cannot be interchanged between the genuine Canon driver and TurboPrint. The reason is that color reproduction is dependent not only on paper and ink but also on the driver / RIP software: different printer drivers ...

Re: Print quality

For the XP-65 printer the TurboPrint print quality levels for plain paper are actually "180dpi", "360dpi" and "1440dpi". However, the "1440dpi" mode should have about the print speed of the Gutenprint driver's 720dpi.

Re: Setting up Mac Clients to Print with Windows Server

Normal licenses are not transferrable from Windows to Mac as they are different products.
We offer multi-user licenses in our online shop (for 3 and for 5 users), they are significantly cheaper that indivudual licenses. Please send us an email (to mail at zedonet dot de) with your license number and ...

Re: Setting up Mac Clients to Print with Windows Server

Hello briachu,

you can share a printer on a Windows PC to Macs but by design every Mac needs a printer driver installed, i.e. you need a multi-user license if you want to use PrintFab on several client Macs. The Windows PC does not necessarily need a PrintFab driver as it just receives printer raw ...

Re: PrintFab 3 beta for Mac available with new Composer layout software

Hello roncromberge,

the Linux beta is now officially available as an option on the normal download page. The package is still called TurboPrint 2.90-beta.

PrintFab for Mac is a universal binary, correct.

Regarding the question where to download the beta version:
TurboPrint 2.9 beta (will be released as V3 when final) is now offered as an alternative on the standard download page where also the current version 2 can be downloaded.
