Lastly and most important is the light box used in this video. It is loan to me from Graphic Technology Inc, GTI
The model in this video is the PDV-3E Desktop viewer.

There are 2 dimmable D50 Florescent bulbs at the top illuminating the light box.
In the video at 1:05, I said that this light box is D65, that is a mistake, this light box is D50. Something to note is that D65 bulbs can be custom configured with GTI.

Thank you for the great video. Does this calibrator support the dnp ds40?
@hab0o0b, you're welcome. Because this is a color spectrophotometer, it will support all print output devices that can be color manage, including an HP laser printer.

Thanks for the Video, Art. DNP released a Metallic and Pearl media for the DS820/DS620 printers. Have you used this media? Do you find it to be worthwhile? Would you recommend a separate profile if we're going to use this media?
I have seen this media, I love it! And if you use this I would use a separate profile.
hello, does the calibration have to be repeated every time I change the media kit?
You can but if the media is the same type, then I would just assumed margin of error. What we all do is critical but if we are printing through a dye sub, it can't be that color critical, it is more instant gratification.
Do you have any tutorial on sublimation printing (fabric). Profiling using i1studio
Not for that, it is a specific process that requires specialize printing devices which I don't have.
@@ArtIsRight tq!
@@ArtIsRight it’s called sublimation heat transfer?
I am aware of it, but don't have the equipment to test and do a demo of it. I have seen it before.
Is there any way to calibrate the printer using an iPad? Specifically in a photobooth environment
No, iPad uses air print driver which does not play nice or at all with icc profile. Further more non of the apps support icc printing in iPad. Curse of the sandbox.
@@ArtIsRight i was afraid of it. However, I do have the printer connected through a usb cable. Does it change anything?
Sadly no, it is not so much the connection but the underpinning of the OS and what it allows and not allows the app to do.
Hi would a efi ES2000 work on i1studio software ?
not i1Studio, it might with i1Profiler, not sure. ES2000 looks like an X-Rite OEM device
Can you profile a canon selphy ?
Same way just print out the patches, scan and save the profile.
@@ArtIsRight ok, I will try it. The selphy has that crap AirPrint driver on the Mac.
@@ArtIsRight i1proiler doesn’t have 4x6 as an option. 😬
What device are you using to calibrate?
@@ArtIsRight I’m using the i1pro 3 plus
Custom Profile appears to have more detail .
They usually do because it was created specifically for your printer
Can I get icc files?
I generally don't distribute these icc profile, reach out to me on fb or email and I can shoot it over to you.
@@ArtIsRight hello! I know this is a long shot but can I also get the icc profile of this? I'm also using the same printer and media as yours and the colors just doesn't look right. Hope you can help! Thank you!
