Are you a photographer that want to take full control of your image making?

Do you print but just don’t get those colours, brightness and sharpness as you really want it?

This Perfect Printing class will give you the knowledge to print your images as you see them on your computer.

This online class delivered via Zoom is designed for photographers that want to home print. We will cover:

  • Taking control of your printer by installing the manufacturers print driver
  • Understand the ICC print profile – what do they do and how important are they
  • Final preparations of an image for print in Photoshop and understand why it is different to a projected image
  • Outputting an image using a print module and the importance of output sharpening
  • Understand Paper choices and how to make them.

This online class is limited to 30 students to allow plenty of time for questions and personal help from Jonathan.

Where to access full control of your printer by removing control from your Windows or Mac driver. Ensuring your driver is current and correct for the paper you are using.

What an ICC profile is and the difference between a bespoke profile and a generic profile. How to load profiles and back them up.

How to make final adjustments to an image with Gamma adjustments and understand Out of Gamut colours

The importance of output sharpening and methods to do this with Photoshop, NIK and a dedicated output print module.

The technical jargon of paper. What Optical Brighteners do, what is cellulose and cotton paper and why is base colour of a paper important. We will also discuss matching images to paper and what benefits archival ink and paper are.
