For me, those are the settings I use for printing on Watercolour papers (mostly Canson Montval and Geler Mate) with Leo Chang's Matte Black ink in my Epson 1400. When Helmar and I were working on using just the Black ink on Epson 6-ink printers, I used your original test image so we could be sure all values were reproduced correctly, which they did when Grayscale was selected and the paper stated to be Plain Paper and the Best Photo setting selected in the Preferences dialogue boxes. I hope it's of use, and please do let me know (directly or here) if it's of help?Ĭool thanks! I assume if I want to test on a larger sheet than A4 (say 17x25), I can just lay 4 of these up on the sheet in the corners, or do you intend to provide larger file sizes at a later date (and/or 360ppi files for us Epson users? :-)) The image contains the exact same photographic elements as the original, to maintain compatibility with any previous test prints. There are lots of features in the image addressing different aspects of print quality, which I've covered in the article with the download links. This version is available at A4 size, 300ppi, and incorporates a 51 step ramp for linearity measurements (a 21 step version is also available) If popular, I could re-arrange the elements to fit on a letter size sheet. Quite a few years ago, I produced a B&W printer test image that I know has been widely used to get a feel for printer/paper/ink performance.Ī while ago I asked for feedback about what aspects people found useful and what could be modified/improved (thanks to all who commented)Īfter testing several new papers recently, I've been working on an updated test print image.
