Morning John, hey what i can say.. i still use test prints for all my work to get the best results that i like...
basically first of all CS3 is not the best joice to print! i got qimage as a print program to print my cs files... but... 2nd... about colormanagement... if you choose to print on a hp glossy paper the gammut is pretty large specially with maximum detail. so i mmostly use absolute colorimatic for the prints. uncheck blackpoint compensation, if ps doesnt do it automatically with this setting. you can use the soft proof function of ps prior to printing to see if it will work.. most of the time the contrasts are better then relative with this media... enjoy! --- In [email protected], "johnval27" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dear users, > I am using a DeskJet 130 to print poster sized A1 prints of TIFF photo files straight from > CS3 onto HP Universal High Gloss Photo paper (Q1426A) on a roll. > The problem is that blacks turn out a brownish color I am pretty sure it is combining the > other colors to make black and not using the black cartridge at all, judging by the low rate > of black ink consumption. > Can you spot what I am doing wrong here? > These are the settings I am using in the following dialogue boxes: > > PAGE SETUP: > DJ130 > Paper size D/A1 ArchD on the roll > Match print colors (box checked) > > PRINT: > Color Management Dialogue box: > Document (Profile AdobeRGB (1998)) (Button checked) > Color handling: Photoshop manages colors > Printer profile: HP DJ 30.90/130 Photo Gloss drv. > Rendering Intent: Relative colorimetric. > Black point Compensation (box checked) > > 2nd PRINT DIALOGUE BOX > Paper Type: Photo paper- Photo Gloss. > Quality: Best > Color: Application Managed Colors > Source: Roll > > INK > Max Detail (box checked) > > Any suggestions gratefully received! > > John Sibley > ------------------------------------ Website: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPDesignJet_Printers Post message: [email protected] Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
