They're neutral in their grays, they have wonderful tonality
and very, very heavy blacks (which I love).»
«The results are remarkable: something I feel proud and
confident about putting out in public in a museum.»
Thomas Hoepker, Magnum Photographer

Lightroom is a Calibrate Printer button, enabling you to launch the
printer’s color management tools directly from the application, the result of close
collaboration between HP and Adobe.
Integrate one of a range of commercially available photo RIPs, such as the ImagePrint
v.6 RIP from ColorByte. This RIP gives you advanced options, including advanced
multiple-image placement, black-and-white split-toning, and PostScript
®
& PDF printing.
«By accessing printer calibration
directly from the Lightroom Print
module, photographers using the
HP Designjet Z series printers will
be assured they’re getting the most
accurate results possible
