Re: NanoChrome South Window Fade Test

2006-01-27 by Greg

I wonder how they would do on a swellable paper like Colorlife or one 
of the Ilford, or HP papers? Not that that would excuse all the hype. 
The sales person that sent me an email said that the printing half os 
US sublimation has completely switched to the Nanochromes, and that the 
printing techs were less than pleased with all the work it caused them 
in making new set ups for the RIPs and the new profiles. He also said 
they were going to have a hard time making the new prints look like the 
previous inks, since these Nano's worked so much better (there is a 
simple solution, but I won't go into it). All the while trying to get 
me to buy a bunch of this ink, I'm sure glad I didn't. When I think of 
all the time that I would have put in to clean the printer, and change 
the RIP, etc., I would have been less than pleased with these results.

Shilesh, send me a message offline if you want to send those test 
prints to me for measurement with my spectro.
