Mac or PC? What software are you printing from? Paul On Mar 4, 2005, at 12:58 AM, Timothy Stark wrote:
I have recently started shooting Raw files, I have the update browser and photolab. I convert raw files to tif and open them in Photoshop 7 on a Mac in OS X.
I cannot get accurate colour printing to an Epson 825, the colours are overly bright an browns become solarized reds. The same shot printed on an old 4 colour Epson 1160 are fairly accurate if a little muted.
Does anyone have a suggestion how to get the printed colour space into the correct range.
The most accurate print was made on the 1160 with sourcespace set to Untagged RGB, Printspace set to Adobe RGB, perceptual intent using Black point compensation. The print dialog box for colour management is set to colour conversion standard and no quartz filter.
I have tried to match these settings in the appropriate places in the dialog boxes for the Epson 825. However I can't get anything near accurate colour no matter how I adjust the settings.
I much prefer the Epson 825 as it is a far more modern 6 colour printer. Prints made from camera generated JPEGs are excellent and are very accurate in colour rendition.
Anyone have a suggestion as to what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
