Re: Printfix Pro Spectro Issue? Prints Yellow/Green

2007-01-08 by bwinkjet

Hi,

I made 2 profiles.  One without any correction and one with Reference 
White Adjustment checked as only adjustment.  Clearly the one with 
RWA checked provides a print with less yellow and more magenta.  
David Miller is right as far as version 2 is concerned.
