Before we begin, we download and install the latest drivers for each printer, then run nozzle check routines and, if required, cleaning cycles. We then carry out print head alignment to ensure optimum accuracy. Each manufacturer’s genuine inks and papers are used throughout.
We create test prints from a range of digital photos, including landscapes, portraits and black-and-white images. Prints are made using standard colour modes as well as any optional enhancement features. We also use our own test chart to reveal each printer’s accuracy in terms of colour reproduction, tonal range and the ability to deliver smooth graduations between subtle colour variations.
