Better Test Pages for Color Printers?

Posted by Cliff on from the printers-as-peacocks dept.

AigariusDebian asks: "I bought a new color laser printer (Lexmark C510), but I am not sure if my driver configuration gets all the best images out of it. I would also like to have some way to brag about it to other laser printer wielding geeks. That means that I'd need to make some kind of repeatable and measurable testing of the printers quality. Are there any good Postscript test files that will allow a non-expert to do a full test of their color laser printer? I am thinking about both resolution, dithering and color matching testing."

    • If you want to brag then your first mistake was buying a Lexmark. LOL
    • Good luck with that!

    Of course, you'll need a reference card by Kodak


    Is there some place I can download that so I can print it?

    I'd like to see the INK and PRINT HEADS on a laser printer, GENIUS. You sure that's not an anal hair clipper you got there? Cuz it sure looks like your HEAD IS IN YOUR ASS!!!!
