John,
The reason it jammed was, because the camera was set to something other than manual and I was manually focusing, plus it was an m42 with adaptor.
Basically I was using the samsung as an slr but didn't tell it.
Back to topic. I am now turning out A4s that are good and it is now a matter of tweaking the results. Hooray.
Regards,
Rex.

Thanks to all.
Tom my dog is a border collie. I am working on him at this time, to ease him away from three years of trauma. I took him because he was going to be shot, he had been ruined by 3 yrs of abuse.
Regards,
Rex and Jock, (the dog.)

Hello again,
I want to tell you again how impressed with you forumites.
I am now getting better prints from my Canon.
I realise that I must now learn digital speak.
I have a couple of questions that I hope to clarify by 'phone, I will be at home tonight, all night.
I haven't really used my GX 10 in anger yet. I have however managed to get an older Pentax K mount lens jammed on the Gx 10. I sent the whole rig to the Samsung workshop and they removed it for me, free of charge. I am now going to paint a fluorescent mark on all my manual lenses and attach a label stating that age does not guarantee wisdom.
Dog walking time again.
Regards.
Rex.

John,
I understand the reasoning behind it.
Thanks, for the reply,
Regards,
Rex/Bresail

TTK,
I have attempted to reply in PM but I am not sure that my reply was accepted. Something about a 30 day rule?
Maybe you could send me the contact details and do it that way.
Regards,
Rex/Bresail.

You guys are terrific!
I've had my new printer for over 6 months and at last I'm getting to use it.
I've only got to do a couple of tweaks as per the talk through, but first I have to take my dog over the hills for a run and stop him from rounding up all of the sheep. He's a rescued border collie and I'm only partway through de-training him and his ambition is still to bring all of the islands sheep to me.
So I'll catch you tomorrow and tell you of my progress.
Thanks a lot.
I'll be back.

I cannot even find how to tun off the colour correction settings.

I may have reached a frustration black spot and my senility has kicked in.

I cannot find anywhere to turn off the printer colour management.
As for the paper profiling after months of contacting Canon by email and 'phone. The replies were all nonsensical, it seemed that the reps didn't know.

I recently changed my printer to the Canon above.
I have tried to print from Photoshop but my pics do not print to the colour that I wanted, the same is true with Corel x2.
I use Spyder as my datum point.
I am willing to admit that I may be not be inputting the correct colours eg, sRGB etc, in the dialogue box I input, "let photoshop manage colour."
I am using Canon inks and paper.
Any ideas?

Well I am new here, I'm a septuagenarian, newly converted to a DSLR a GX 10. I couldn't justify the additional cost for the Pentax. same model.
I live in Shetland
My camera life started about 50yrs ago with a Pentax and I have stuck with them ever since. I still have an Sv,a P30 and various lenses, both m42 & k fit. I also have an old Pentax exposure metre that fits on the prism and a euromaster V.
I have also decided that I will be using both film and digital.
I will always be pleased to hear from people.
Regards,
Rex.
