Its print quality, including of course colour management and colour and tonal rendition.The main questions of interest to this review: LSI’s primary objectives were to focus on user-convenience and simplicity of operation. In this they have succeeded pretty well, as demonstrated below. PT8 is designed to minimize the amount of technology the user needs to know, putting most of it under the hood and allowing the user to focus on print quality, letting the software do the rest. LaserSoft Imaging (LSI) decided on this architecture in order to give them complete transparency of and control over the print pipeline. PT8 is intended to be an independent, stand-alone application for printing large format photographs and any digital image in general it bypasses the Epson driver and Colorsync, using a built-in drivers framework and colour management system. It is not compatible with Mac OS 10.8 Mountain Lion or earlier – nor will it be. Within the Mac OS environment, it can be installed on Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks and more recent. It supports papers from Epson, Canon, Bonjet, Breathing Color, Canson, Hahnemuhle, Ilford, Red River, Innova, Moab, Tecco and Tetenal. Only the name is about the same. For now, PT8 is a Mac-only application for a large number of Epson and Canon printers (see the list in the PrinTao8 website ( ), but development and support for other printers may well be in its future. Users of SilverFast will not find a good part of PT8’s functionality in SilverFast. SilverFast has a printing function called PrinTao However, PrinTao 8 (PT8) is a completely new, redeveloped application from the bottom up. Well Dear Reader, “What’s in a Name……for software?” We’ll leave that for you to decide! ☺ Context: If we learn to simplify our lives, we can experience a profound satisfaction….” Human beings create a lot of trouble for themselves by making everything more complex than they need to be. “……The basis for our reality and our existence is elemental and uncomplicated. “……True virtue is a state where such actions flow forth naturally, requiring no conscious effort or thought.” This magic is possible, indeed unavoidable, when one is in tune with the Tao and acts without attachments.” “……the truly wise don’t seem to do much at all and yet achieve whatever they want. ![]() The tao is like a flow that is everywhere.”īut perhaps more in context, Derek Lin (on points to some aspects of Tao from the teachings of Lao Tzu: Or from the Urban Dictionary: “The exact meaning of tao is untranslatable. Tao, according to Goggle: “(in Chinese philosophy) the absolute principle underlying the universe, combining within itself the principles of yin and yang and signifying the way, or code of behavior, that is in harmony with the natural order”. We hope you like this series as it continues through out the year. To me and all of us at Luminous-Landscape we believe that photography is all about the print. We’ll have video conversations about printing as well as different ways to display prints. We will be looking at printers, papers, RIPs, and tricks. Publishers Note: This is the first in our Getting Back To The Print series.
