I would have thought that if you printed as per the tutorials, then you should get something pretty reasonable. So, as long as your images are within the sRGB colour space then the colours should be reasonably represented by what you see on the screen. Earlier versions appear to at least display the whole sRGB gamut, later ones something called P3, which is bigger, yet insufficient to include the Adobe gamut, though includes colours Adobe does not. And I don’t seem able to find out either in Pixinsight or when saved as tif or when uploaded into Affinity.Īt risk of flogging this one, from what I have subsequently read, the Mac Retina display should be close enough for your initial needs. I don’t know what the colour space of my images are. Then I can maybe look at calibrating the screen in the future. So I’d be happy if I can make a bit of an improvement in the printed images. Most people don’t calibrate their screens. But I’m hoping we can think of this as a first iterative step rather than getting into calibration at this stage. Yes, I realise that for best performance my screen should to be calibrated. If not, if the Adobe colour space is printed from a non-colour managed app, then it could look washed out. Another thing is what colour space are your created files in, sRGB or Adobe? If you are printing direct from Affinity, though, I would have thought it should able to accommodate, as it's a colour managed application. Even that doesn't guarantee it, because if the screen is too bright then the prints will come out dark. Well yes, if you want the print to look like the one screen, then the screen ought to be calibrated. But I feel there should be a more systematic approach. I can do is boost the exposure a bit which helps. The profile simply isn’t there in my case. # If adding a soft proofing layer should one be able to select Epson glossy paper. # Within the Color Sync menu there doesn’t seem to be a profile for the Epson Glossy Paper. # Whether one should select ColorSync or Epson Color Control in the Color Matching menu? I’ve tried both without much effect. I have watched lots of YouTube videos on how to print in Affinity including about ICC paper profiles, Soft Proofing blar blar blar but absolutely none of them have been any help whatsoever. I use the printer for everyday printing, no problem. I have the drivers for this printer installed. I am printing onto Epson Premium Glossy PhotoPaper which I can select within the printing menu. I usually do a bit of resizing, changing DPI to 300 etc in Affinity and save as afphoto format. This is not a question about how or where to get photos printed professionally.Īll images are processed in Pixinsight and then saved as tif 16 bit unsigned integer for opening in Affinity. They are just for pasting into my notebook or sticking up on the wall occasionally. The photos look dull and although I appreciate they will not look as good as on screen, I feel they could be better. I have an Epson ET-7700 ecotank printer on which I would like to print Astrophotographs using Affinity Photo.
