Colour swatch printing comparison


Colour comparisons:
Top image 16 colour swabs drawn out on cartridge paper and 60gm tracing paper. 



Bottom image printed out of inkjet printer after having scanned tracing paper and cartridge paper colour swaps into computer at 300dpi. 


Points worth nothing through completion of task:

  1. Always worth cleaning heads if using an inkjet printer. Especially one that is not in regular use.
  2. much easier to paste cartridge  paper onto paper than tracing paper onto paper. problem may be solved with higher weight tracing paper.
  3. Easier to paste printed images into book without fear of smearing that was present with drawn colours.
  4. Lemon yellow comes out much darker after being scanned in
  5. Aqua marine green comes out as a blue hue after being scanned and printed out.
