Which printers print directly from RAW?

all of them.

Proof?

open raw image. choose print from the menus. collect print from printer.

optionally adjust image prior to printing.

Are you saying there is no conversion prior to printing.

obviously the printer driver converts the data to whatever format the
printer needs, but that isn't anything that the user sees nor needs to
be concerned about.

whatever software you're using also converts the data to its own native
format. your camera isn't spitting out .psd files.

the user simply opens a raw image, adjusts to taste and prints. done.

they do the same thing with a text file, spreadsheet, 3d graphic or
whatever else. just open the document, adjust if desired, choose print
and collect print.

the point is there is *no* need to save as a jpeg or any other interim
format to print.


So there is a conversion. Once there is a need for conversion, it is
immaterial whether the user does the conversion, or an activated app
does the conversion.


Your statement is contrary to other comments I have heard.

then you're listening to ignorant people.

Leave out snarky comments.

i'll say whatever i want.


Your attitude adds to your persona. You have a sick and desperate need
for attention. Looks like you have to keep convincing yourself of your
greatness. Too bad others are not so convinced.
