Photoshop Printing Problems II

[RJ Swift]

Right.

I remember you said to post my settings. As far as posting color settings, I don't quite understand how to do that one. I'm also trying to learn how to do "screen shots" that way, I could post my Photoshop Image and my "final" save. Perhaps you (or someone) could help me out in that area, hopefully.

I have to look into the ICC thing with my printer because off-hand, I don't know if it has it or not. Sorry.

Thanks.

It will tell you all about setting up an ICC profile and color settings in PS,or using one of Ian Lyons profiles,and also how to calibrate your monitor and scanner.Its all also in pdf and step by step in tute form.

Its more based around Epson printers but it may have expanded since then.

Forgot to mention that CMYK just will not print as saturated as RGB looks on screen on a desk jet printer,it will almost always look dull compared to RGB,but there are tweaks you can add and you have to make sure your colors are in gamut first and that everything is correctly or as close to correctly calibrated as is possible.
