If I made a print I had to go through Photoshop or Lightroom. Part of it was because I didn’t have ImagePrint at home which, for me, made printing so easy and reliable. I didn’t do many prints at home and while spending so much time at home, I wondered why. The gallery was shut down for many months and that meant if I wanted to print I had to print at home. The rest of the time, and most all the time in the last few months, I am at home. I spend just so many hours at the gallery per day.

Details and colors were excellent in all. They cover a number of mid-tone, high and low tone images. These are three of my favorite files provide to me by Bill Atkinson years ago. At the end of the day, you have a pile of prints and you find a newfound pride in the image, and it feels so good holding it in your hand. These printers work great and there are days when I am running all four printers at the gallery making prints.
#EPSON 3880 PRINTER SAMPLES PRO#
I own a Canon Pro 1000 ( Amazon, Roberts Camera and B&H), Pro 2000 ( Amazon, Roberts Camera and B&H), Epson P800 and 9900 ( Roberts Camera and B&H) printers all driven by Colorbyte’s Imageprint software. Suffice to say this printer is quite amazing, works as advertised, and deliverd hundreds of quality prints on various paper sizes driven through a variety of devices. Mark Segal will be doing a follow on article using its bigger brother the P900 in the coming weeks once we receive the printer from Epson. Publishers note: I am covering this article without a lot of technical jargon and specs. For years, I have spoken with print manufacturers and asked them to find a way to make a printer and the process of printing as easy as turning on a TV. Printing required going through a checklist of steps that seemed like you were launching the Apollo moon rocket. While there were capable printers, the process of making a print with confusing dialogue boxes, crazy named profiles, and so many paper choices and crazy decisions to make-like printer manage color or photoshop managed color-and we haven’t even mentioned borders, color space, and so much more. Until recently this could be quite daunting.

The next best thing is to be making your own prints on your own printer in your own home. There is nothing like holding a print of what you have photographed. You can dwell on it, move in closer, and explore details. You can hold it in your hands or put it on the wall. In many ways, I don’t believe you have a photograph until it is in print. As a regular reader of this site, you will know that I am a big believer in printing and getting my exposures onto a piece of paper.
