I currently have an HPB9180 and Epson R1800 which I am wanting to compare the outputs from. I am using HP Advanced Glossy paper for the comparison (currently half price at Staples). I have created profiles for this paper for each printer. However when I produce prints using these respective profiles, the HP is quite close to the on-screen file and look superb while the Epson print is very yellow with a bit of green thrown in for good measure. Now I would have thought that the profiles would make the output from these printers (in color terms) very close. Am I wrong? Any suggestions as to why the profile I made for the HP is pretty good while the Epson one sucks? I have redone the profile a couple of times but still the same overly warm result from the R1800. Could it be the GLOP perhaps, or is the Printfix Pro the problem, or is it that the Epson is not compatible at all with the HP paper and a profile cannot rectify this? (surely this could not be the case?) I must say though that the profile the Printfix produced for the HP is a lot better than HP's own profile for the Advanced Glossy paper. All and any contributions appreciated.
