Agent M10 Posted November 23, 2008 Share #1 Posted November 23, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) As Jeff Schewe has said (at least in video form), printing usually requires a bump up in histogram since what we see on the screen is a little different from a print. Does anyone know how to do a preset or some other thing to do this on a print-job basis in Lightroom? I don't use Lightroom's Print Module, but ImagePrint. I want to keep the tonal range where I have it in Lightroom and only want to have the uptick when I decide to export to print. Thanks in advance.

Shootist Posted November 23, 2008 Share #2 Posted November 23, 2008 Doesn't Imageprint do this and or can't you do this in Imageprint? For the cost of that printing program there should be a way to boost the brightness before you print. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
archi4 Posted November 25, 2008 Share #3 Posted November 25, 2008 I have found the most consistent method is to calibrate my monitor to the correct brightness, which in my case is 80 cd/m2 for my i-mac. i-Macs are inherently much too bright. I use x-rite i1photo to calibrate printer for my different papers and results are very consistent both as to brightness and color whether printing from Photoshop, Lightroom, or Aperture.

haribo Posted November 25, 2008 Share #4 Posted November 25, 2008 I don't print from Lightroom. Use a ColorBurst RIP instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
