Hi All, I think I'm wrong when I print from GIMP because I have a very yellowish print....a very yellow color cast in neutral zones.
I created a printer profile with ArgyllCMS and seems it works well because if I test it with xicclu command (for who known Argyll) with neutral Lab values I got neutral values (Lab->RGB output->Lab). The issue arises when I print but I think to make a wrong way: Ok, what I did: I download a proof image from internet with Prophoto color profile. When I load in GIMP I keep ProPhoto therefore RGB device values are ProPhoto RGB. Then I convert the image into printer profile and I think the values are converted to RGB values of printer profile based on Lab values of ProPhoto. Now I should have an image with device (printer) RGB values to send the printer , haven't I? The printer if matches the ICC profile I created should "translate" those RGB numbers into colors. But the image, I view correct on display is very yellowish on the paper. Is this workflow correct fro printing color managed in GIMP? Or am I missing something?? I do not know if I'm clear ( English is not my language 😐) Cheers Gabriele _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
