Test Print Image File..... - PhotoCamel

Tom Swaman · 10-09-2007

Can anyone recommend a simple and inexpensive test image file to check print quality and color gamut without a whole lot of hardware?

I had heard that the test downloads of Bill Atkinson would do this, but when I downloaded these, these would not open in CS3. These were TIFs, also.

Thank you,
Tom

Does anyone have any experience with IMatest products? With other test products?

Thanks,
Tom

Sorry Tom, I was just about to start a thread on "how to calibrate my printer" and I saw this thread

I heard that some calibrators can do both the monitor and the printer? pretty cool, but I'm sure it's extremely expensive for a system like that.

Best,
Jay
