#Bjc-600help
3 messages in this thread
I just got a canon bjc 600 inkjet printer and am having problems getting
accurate color output. I have the cannon driver availible from the directory
but am having trouble deciphering the color adjustment options. I would
appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.
thanks alot,
Dennis
First, I'm responsible for the programming of the orig. Canon BJC driver
available on the CanonDisk V3.1 here on CIS. Do not mix that BJC driver with
the other driver available here on CIS in a single archive. Only my Canon
driver offers full Extended Emulation on the Amiga and you need that in order
to get speed/quality. So, in case you are using the CanonBJ-EC driver,
continue. Otherwise, flame the other author 😉
Please, describe VERY VERY precise your problems with the Canon driver. And
don't forget to include the info on the program/driver settings you are using.
I'm currently on vacation and thus can't try out your report. But maybe we can
solve this problem here on CIS. Just make sure I know what exactly you are
doing.
Well the driver I am Using is yours and the printer prints, theres no problem
there the problem is in the color output. The colors are darker and not the
same as what I see on screen, This was stated in the manual on the canon disk,
but I could not find where It said how to correct this. Ive tried adjusting the
gamma correction and using the color adjustments, but I cant seem to find the
correct settings. you said to include all info so I ran the report program and
heres what it said:
