I fully agree with you!
It is too bad that you are not using a PC since then you could help
us figuring out how to get an efficient RAM based RAM-disk.
I'm using a PC, just not running Windows (I normally use Linux and
Solaris).
So while we are waiting for someone to help to figure out how to get tons
of RAM into a PC and create a RAM-disk, we might have to live with the
compromise of a PCI Solid state disk.
I did a (very!) quick Google search on 'Windows "RAM disk"' and came
up with a few things. There are RAM disk drivers available out there.
Try http://www.eecsys.com. Also, according to
http://www.jsiinc.com/subh/tip3500/rh3515.htm, Microsoft has released
a RAM disk for Windows 2000; that site has a link to it.
As for loading up with tons of RAM, it can be done; it's just a matter
of finding the right hardware (I'm OK with 512M, although the GIMP can
bog down when I'm playing with a big image). If you're making your
living running Photoshop, it's a small price to pay; 8 GB of RAM isn't
much more than $1000.

Sorry about calling you Bob earlier Robert. I also accept that there are
others involved in the discussion; I just thought that I ought to let you
know my limitations since I felt that the post was directed primarily to my
comments despite its being available to others who might be more
knowledgable.
>I wasn't thinking in terms of a *physical* RAM-based disk drive, using
>RAM on a PCI-based card or something.
I thought that was the case; and neither was I when I originally responded.
When this alternative PCI based RAM disc was brought up, I have to admit
that the fact that it was PCI based and not motherboard-based seemed to pass
by me unnoticed until you just mentioned it. The point you make regarding
it's use with Photoshop as a scratch disk is a good one.
With respect to " I was thinking about the OS using some amount of system
memory as a temporary filesystem," my earlier remarks pertaining to the
amounts of physical motherboard based RAM that a system can handle and costs
apply as you note. While I am not as optimistic about large capacity RAM
chips becoming more readily available in the ordinary channels and at lower
prices even in the near future as you appear to be, it may be more the case
in the more distant future; but by then the whole system may be demanding
more access to motherboard based RAM so as to result in no net gain in
discretionary surpluses of RAM available for RAM disks of the sort you are
referring to. At present, I think that the only professional image editing
which might be demanding enough to really need such an increase in speed in
data transmission would be those involved in movies, streaming video, and
the like. I do not think that still images and image editing even on the
professional level is all that demanding at present or will be in the future
as to require the incremental speed up in data transmission that would be
provided.
However, I do have a question about another of your statements on this in
another post which I did not understand and would like clarification. In
another of your posts dated the same as this one, 6/16/02, you say:
If you really want to use a memory-based filesystem for
application-level swapping performance, the right thing to do is to
use some kind of RAM or virtual-memory based filesystem (in the latter
case, use the smallest swap space you can, or even don't use any swap
space if your OS allows it).
I do not understand the part that relates to the "virutal-memory based
filesystem," since that is already what all versions of Windows uses
currently and Photoshop utilizes in terms of scratch disks and whose
dissatisfaction served as the impetus for this discussion of RAM drives.
How is the "virutal-memory based filesystem" in your "use some kind of RAM
*or* virtual-memory based filesystem" an alterantive? Moreover, in image
editing, the comment, "use the smallest swap space you can" is not very
useful since the smallest typically is quite large depending on the image
file sizes one uses and the application that one works in. Photoshop
typically requires virtual memory of from 3 to 5 times the image file size
and many professional image files range from 50-125 MB. Thus, one is
talking 150MB of virtual memory minimum to around 750MB at the highter end
per open image file within those files size ranges. What did you have in
mind when you made that statement?

Subject: Re: W2K RAMlimits
I wasn't thinking in terms of a *physical* RAM-based disk drive, using
RAM on a PCI-based card or something. That's always going to be much
slower than using standard motherboard-based memory; PCI bus bandwidth
is usually only 133 MB/sec on PC motherboards and even 66 MHz, 64-bit
PCI is only 533 MB/sec. I was thinking about the OS using some amount
of system memory as a temporary filesystem.
Granted, it's currently only server-based (and high-end workstation)
system boards that can go above 4 GB, but with the price of memory
being what it is, I can't see that staying the case for long. I was
also thinking in terms of professional image editing.

I haven't crunch numbers between the new 2100/2200 and the 2000P as I don't
have a 2000P. But crunching the numbers from Epson the 2100/2000 seems to be
2x+ more expensive than the 1270. Since I haven't had a 2100/2200 to play
with these are just generated numbers. With the separate carts of the
2100/2200 perhaps the 2200 numbers will be better in actual use.

It is not the actual photographing that is restricted. You can photography
anything as long as you are on public property (.i.e. not trespassing) even
in France. It is the use of the photographs which is restricted. You can get
a photo published in a newspaper but you can't use that same photo in an ad

If one could accept half a gig as a scratch disk, one could possibly use a
512M flash card in either a USB or FireWire connected card reader (total
about $250). If one needs more, a one gig or better card would up the total
to around $1500 or more. Too bad there is no obvious way - at least not to
me - to gang a bunch of flash memory using conventional readers.

I just read an article written in 2000 that may shed additional light on
the limits in using flash media in a scratch disk application. The salient
portion reads:
Flash SSDs are great for applications in which data is frequently read from
memory but not often written to it. Like a mechanical hard drive, a flash
SSD can be read a virtually unlimited number of times. However, the same is
not true for writes: most individual flash devices (which are actually
charge-coupled devices) can handle only about 100,000 writes before they
won't charge -- that is, change state -- anymore.

it, was at $110 with the reserve having not been met - it closes on
Jun-17-02 21:44:42 PDT. The manufacturer, M-Sytems, produces a variety of

To get this effect the nozzle check must be telling the wrong nozzle to fire.
So it has to be a software or a transmission problem. The chips only countsl
how many times the nozzles have fired and should be involved in the problem.

Ursula, Smartfill works fine for me with PS7, Win2K.
It's not perfect, but could be very useful when the texture you are
filling is reasonably random. I tried it on removing a pole in front of
a basket and the program just wasn't able to deal with it the regular
basket-weave pattern successfully (though it sure gave a good try).

2200 prints to a maximum black density of 2.0
1270/1280 prints to a maximum black density of 3.0
which leads me to conclude that on glossy paper 1270/1280 will have longer
B&W tone scale than the 2200.
On matte paper difference between 1270/1280 and the 2200 will probably be
marginal.

What a kicker!
WILHELM PRELIMINARY DATA on ink for 7600 (which is the same ink as the 2200)
Premium Glossy Photo Paper 90 to 100 years
Fine Art Papers 80 to 100 years
Premium Luster Photo Pape 50 years
Premium Semimatte Photo Paper 40 years
Enhanced Matte Paper 30 years
VS 1270/1280
Premium Glossy Photo Paper 10 Years
Enhanced Matte Paper 25 years
So the question is How close to the gamut of the 1270/1280 is the new
Ultrachrome and how much per print will the Ultrachrome prints be compared to
a 1270/1280 print.

I think I know what you are talking about. In my case, the streaks were in
the axis of head movement and larger than a dot, but very fine. It looks
like a nozzle leaking; like a fine dribble. I also would get drops of ink on
the paper edge.
Having taken a few Epsons apart and looked at the heads, the cleaning
station, and the printer innards in action, I've seen that the head surface
is perfectly flat with the nozzle orifices drilled into the head surface.
Ink accumulates as drops on the flat head during a cleaning cycle, partly
because the cleaning operation involves a bit of suction at the waste
receiver as well as firing from the nozzles. There is a wiper that squeegees
the head to clear the drops. I can imagine that as the head wears the nozzle
orifices enlarge to a point where surface tension no longer keeps the ink in
the head and ink dribbles. Or maybe cruft develops in/around the nozzle that
causes ink to wick to the head surface. A drop of ink forms on the head
surface, ultimately growing large enough to catch the paper as a blob.
I resolved the problem with a head replacement. For a 3000, heads ran about
$75.00 & $100.00 (black & color) and a couple of hours of labor are required
to replace them. A special service utility is required to align the heads,
something to consider if your tempted to attempt repair yourself.
I'd consider having the 1270 fixed if it works fine for you otherwise. I'll
guess it will cost $150 to $200 for a black head replacement.

Jim,
I am sorry but I may be a little dense. How can one use flash memory on
flash memory cards in Firewire or USB 2.0 ( I presume) connected flash card
readers as a scratch disk in such a manner as to make it faster than hard
drives on USB 2.0 (I assume) and Firewire? Doesn't one run into the same
bottlenecks in terms of both the connections and with respect to the
operation of the readers as one runs into now with hard drives ( even those
that are SCSI, USB 2.0, or Firewire connected)? I guess I fail to see the
benefits of this over the current scratch disk methods which locate the
virtual memory on a hard drive - and especially when compared to
motherboard-based RAM drives in the speed department.

My advice was worth every penny you paid for it, but seriously, there should
not be a limitation between perceptual and colorimetric intents as you are

Lawrence,
I should be much more specific and precise. I also should not have said
7000/9000 "series" printers. Not that you or I or anybody except Epson might
know this (it'd even be hard for them to know), but I wonder what the
percentage of 3rd party ink users is for the 7500 and 9500 users who have
access to Epson's pigmented inks? In other words, when the same "type" of ink
is available from both Epson and 3rd parties for their large format printers,
how many opt for 3rd party ink? In the situations you outline (B&W and
pigmented color), there is no Epson option for the 7000 and 9000. So it makes
sense that if you want B&W or pigmented color ink you have no alternative
except to look at 3rd parties. I wonder how many users use 3rd party dye ink in
their 7000 or 9000?
I still stand by my initial point (which I don't want to get lost). What are
the main advanatges of the 2200/7600/9600 over their predecessors?
1) Increased color gamut over previous formulation
2) Reduced metamerism
3) Superior black and white through use of 7th ink
4) Cost
ALL of these advantages except for #5 are a direct result of the UC inks. Maybe
there will be a big demand for 3rd party color pigmented ink for the
2200/7600/9600. But I just don't see it right now.

From what I've read, you do. I suggest doing a rigorous web search, and also
ask in the Microsoft newsgroups; their news server is news.microsoft.com.

Jerry,
I don't know as I can answer that one, except to say at the time that I bought
the
Indelibles, they had the best gamut, least metamersim, and were reportedly the
most
stable and clog free on any of the pigment inks. But they were also the most
expensive...By a long shot.
I have yet to hear anyone who has had the Indelibles complain about them, but
their
stability does not seem quite as good as claimed, but no worse than the best out
there.

I'm by no means an expert in patent or copyright law (I'm a tax nerd), but
if I can't use a photo of the White House however I want, someone is going
to have to put that up on the chalkboard for me. I am aware that a photo of
private (non-taxpayer funded) property requires a release. The reference to
France was because of part of the thread dealing with photographing the
Eiffel Tower, and in fact most things are a bit different there (they do
make some decent wine, though). Anyway, now my curiousity is up so I'll do
some research to be sure I'm not blindsided on my own portfolios. If I have
time. I finally figured out how to make reasonably neutral b&w prints onthe
1270, which was a big energy drain.

Nice try Bob. There was one item there that I deleted. I then reinstalled and
printed, same problem.

FWIW . . .
I have been working with a photo consultant as I seek to launch my
business. She has a long history of success in "the business of the
business," and in the photo stock world, both in the US and abroad.
When we were reviewing my portfolio for images that I might license, she
advised me to pull the photograph of the Eiffel Tower at night. Per
Kathleen's response below, I was told that the lighting design was
copyrighted, and that any unauthorized use would be copyright infringement.
I think we need to be careful also that we are not assuming that French law
in this area is the same as American.

This is a little tricky to describe but the problem is really very
straightforward. For some reason my old 1200 has a really annoying
habit of getting itself out of position. In other words, the print
heads often don't park at the right end where they're supposed to ,
they sit wind up stopping somewhere along the print track where
they're not supposed to. Once this happens I have to shut it off,
manually reposition the print headss and then turn it back on. I
usually have to then clean the print heads .
It''s been getting worse and I'm wondering if anyone might know how
to fix this without resorting to replacing the printer.
I have a Niagara Continuous Inking System set up on it but it doesn't
appear that that is the culprit. There is no unusual drag being caused
by the feed t tubes. I've been using this setup for a number of years
without any problems until now.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
jwynn80@...
Thanks for your suggestions, however I don't think that buildup or lack
of lubrication on the steel rod upon which the print heads travel is the
culprit. I carefully inspected mine and found it to be free of anything
that might stop the print heads from traveling back and forth. It had a
little bit of ink on it. I cleaned and lubed the rod with a small amount
of teflon lube (Tri-Flow) but shortly thereafter the heads stopped in
the middle of the rod again once it had finished printing. I turn off
the printer, push the print head all the way to the right near it's park
position and turn the printer back on. Usually it's good for another few
prints before it parks itself in the wrong position again.
Still seeking a solution.
Does anyone experience stoppage when spooling and
printing a document on a C84? It suddenly stops . You
can hear it getting ready to print and then is gone,
The Icon disappears from the chooser and won't show up
in the chooser window. Strangely, I can go to my
back-up C86 and it prints. Continuous uninstall and
re-install is necessary and seems only to last a few
printings.
