steve said the ip8500 had too much red in skin tones
amateur photographer rated the ip8500 as very good. in fact it criticised
the ip5000 versus the ip8500 as the 5000 was a more yellow. could it be
steves perception of too much red is off? I've seent the printed tests
myself, i emphasise printed and not web based off the monitor. unless AP's
print setters are off then i will have to go with the AP vote.

Vincent Oliver of Photo-i also got red skin tones with a review iP8500
whereas an i9950 was OK. Either there is a variation in printer
performance between samples or in test procedure.
