Re: filmscanners: Qst: Actual printer resolution at ezPrints

[Collin Ong <collin@pcocd2.intel.com>]

I sent in a similar question about wallet size prints.  I'm surprised they
aren't more responsive with exact resolution specs, aspect ratios, white
point, and colorsync profiles since they are after higher end business
than the normal consumer.  Hopefully, Apple's investment in Ofoto will
produce ColorSync profile out of them.

I did some wallet prints at ezprints and they came out on the dark side
with some color casting that I couldn't nail down by eye.  I ordered their
color calibration prints to try to adjust my monitor to match their
system.  However, the prints also came out skewed about 3 degrees relative
to the paper...so images are cut off on the left side and there is white
space on the right side...  I'm going to see how they rectify this..
