View 1 RepliesI'm having an issue with Autocad LT 2010 where when I xref in my title block which has our company logo in color, the logo will only print in black and white. If i open just the title block and print it, it will then print in color. I only seem to have this problem when the title block is xref'd in. I downloaded the 2012 demo version of AutoCadLT and it prints just fine?This has just started happening when my computer was upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit.

I am already building in CMYK mode. My Client has a nice gray scale scheme but I am worried that the print shop will mess up the colors.
How do I create a custom set of colors and adhere to that scheme throughout the clients stationary and media.
ie. Cards, Labels, Signs, etc.
Is there an option to print a color scale along with the image, sorta like when you calibrate your printer?
I am trying to find out how to print a true color solid hatch for a rendered site plan. I can change the color in layer properties but when I go to print, it shows and prints a darker more saturated color almost like an autocad color. When I select the transparency button it seems to be closer to the real color.

I setup plot style by making different % of screening on each color and by adjusting line weight on drawing layer.
I receive drawings from a company that uses a custom color of 0,0,255 in their drawings and it plots out blue even on monochrome. How can I make a pen setting so this plots out black?

Some toggle I accidentally hit? (That Gizmo thing is suddenly showing up too)
Because of the problems with wipeouts, I have switched to using some solid hatch set to colour 255. The hatch is in paperspace, sitting under titleblock and other Layout text. I am plotting to an HP1050C, using a .ctb file with 255 set with grayscale off.
The plot preview is fine, but the hatch blocks come out black on paper. I thought this was the problem with wipeouts, and that hatch didn't suffer from it.
Is there a way to control color print quality that matches the in-canvas look of a part or assembly.
As a quick example, I have a Kelly Green wire visible within an assembly. When I print the assembly within a .idw drawing file, the Kelly Green turns very dark.
Is it possible to specify a particular lighting setting to be used when printing? I'm expecting to see color print output that matches closely to what I see when viewing either a model or an assembly.
I'm using Inventor 2013.
I upgraded from CS5 on XP to CS6 hosted on Windows 7, 64 bit. Images loaded into my new CS6 system from my camera or the web display and print perfectly. I am using the same printer for CS6 as I did for CS5, an Epson 3800.
However, when I open and print older CS5 generated images using CS6, the images print with what appears to be reversed grey tones and off color but the monitor displayed colors appear just as good as they did on CS5. In summary, images generated in CS6 print ok, but images generated under my old CS5 system print with off colors using CS6 but display ok.
I can't convince my Corel Draw X6 to print in color. Even the print preview is in B&W. I've been using Draw since version 8 and I never encountered this problem before. Do I reinstall my printer's driver? I upgraded to X6 only recently - did I miss something in printing setup?

But recently, everything I print FROM PHOTOSHOP has a pinkish cast. I wish I could say "I've only changed one thing" between "when it was good" and "now it isn't" but there is too much water under the bridge for that. I CAN tell you that I installed Epson's "PIM II" system trying to solve an unrelated problem, realized it didn't solve it, and de-installed it. I believe the problems happened after that - but even if I could point the finger at it, I'm not sure I'd know what to do.
I've been trying to eliminate variables, so I gave up on photographs I simply wanted to print, and created an image from scratch I want to use anyway. (I plan to use it when I shoot photos to confirm exposures, set white balance, etc.) This document was created in 8-bit RGB and assigned the "working space" profile, which I have set to sRGB IEC61966-2.1. This is the same profile I have been using, that I have assigned to my photos, etc - - and prefer not to screw with because it has worked for me in the past. The document has some grays I created using R=G=B, and a range of colors including pure R, G and B. You'll see in a moment.
Now - when I print this doc from PS, it gets a very pinkish cast - especially in the black-to-white gray bars. However, they look fine on the screen, and I verified their pixel values with Apple's "digital color meter" app. My monitor, by the way, is an Apple Studio Monitor, and the system is set up to use the Apple Studio Monitor profile as the colorsync profile for the monitor.
But here's the kicker. When I open and print this same document using Apple's "Preview" app, and the same print settings - it prints properly!. I conclude from this that the problem is somewhere with PS, not with the printer or other system settings.
This image (about 200K, jpeg'd, but not enough to not make the point) is a screen shot showing the same doc open in PS and Preview, along with my PS color settings dialog. I DO see a slight color difference in the way PS displays the file (particularly the blue square) - but the difference in printouts is considerably more severe.
EVery time I print a test target for color profiling, I open CS4 so that I can print with no color management. I can't figure out how to do it in CS6. I must be missing something obvious, but I just can't find the option to print without color management anywhere in the CS6 driver.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have CS6, Epson 3880 printer. Both monitor and printer have been calibrated. When viewing a pic that I wish to print, I go to view, proof setup and chose printer and paper, preserved RGB box is check. This gives me a proof, which is very accurate to what is actually printed. Here's my problem: There is a color change when viewing the pic in proof print mode, which is what in fact, gets printed. Most of the color change involves alteration in red. A red bowl is changed to a brownish read bowl for example. I have been unsuccessful in trying to match the proof to the original color scheme. I've played with hue, color mixing, all to no avail. Is there an easy way to match colors original pic and proof/print?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to print a target from i1Profiler so I can read it with my i1Pro and create a printer profile, but no matter what I do, there is no way to get photoshop from supplying a profile while printing. I tried to select Printer handles color and then put the printer driver in COLOR MANAGEMENT OFF (seemed to me this would disable both the printer managing color and photosbop managing color). Tried printing this way ( and many other ways) but NO SOLUTION --- the prints are EXTREMELY different from the on-screen view (which is in a properly profiled Apple monitor) and they actually look like the ones with a profile chosen.
I also tried the utility Adobe Color Printer Utility and same results!!
I am using an EPSON Stylus Pro 7900 that I just purchased.
When I try to print, the print placement dialogue box shows the image in greyscale, and when I click the options tab, the options to print color and CMYK separations are greyed out. Going ahead to print gives me a B&W print. The same file prints perfectly in color in PSP X3. What setting I need to tweak?

View 3 Replies View RelatedColor pencil is a transparent medium, most like watercolors; as a result, it is equivalent to the CYMK mode in Photoshop.
I'm working on an exercise to use only the primary colors in color pencil. If I am in CYMK mode in Photoshop, I can separate each channel to see how much pigment goes into each color. However, I would like to print it on a transparency IN COLOR, so I can superpose them onto each other to see each contribution in its original color.
But whenever I have only one channel left - say, magenta - the image appears in grayscale.
Is there a way to have each channel show up only in its own color, rather than in grayscale?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe RGB values of the Border color added in the Lightroom 5.3 Print Module does match the RGB values of a selected spot on the image as seen in the Develop Module. How can one get a correct color from the image itself to become the Print Module Border color? Why do these not match? How can a matching result be obtained other than the very imprecise appoach of visually trying to match the color?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIt's good practice to keep within certain color schemes for a business.. for brand recognition etc. But my problem is i started a company, and my first stop was the logo and website. I found a color scheme which i loved on screen.. its blue (#265E81) and dark grey (#272727)
I created a website aorund these colors. I then created business cards using these colors. And invoices. And letterheads. Now to my shock, the dark grey is So unreadable when ontop of the blue when printed out. Its clear as day on screen.... any screen. But just not on print. The blue becomes ALOT darker on print.
I do have slight understanding of setting up a document for print... such as 300dpi, and CMYK etc. But it doesn't make a difference to my final print.
Is there a method that i can find the color that will look like my blue on screen.. once printed out? Im tempted to just brighten up the blue on all documents intended for print... but that doesnt seem very proffesional or standard.
how do other companies pick their color schemes. Do they test there schemes on print aswell as screens before going ahead with it? I just see companies having the exact same color whether i see it on my screen or on a printed document.
Got specs for converting a print ad to jpg for ATM: 800wx600h; 72dpi; 256 colors. As far as I know, the only way to get 256 colors is to convert to index. When I do, the halftones get slightly grainy.
Also, I can only save the file as .psd, not .jpg as required. How to convert my file to 72 dpi jpg with 256 colors.
Is there any way to print a custom color table without having to either spend $500+ on a plugin or having to draw each color and label by hand?
I regularly create color tables from images, convert to .aco or PS color palettes. Lately I have needed larger palettes and the process of creating these by hand is grueling.
Draw X5 and Photo-Paint X5 won't print color on Canon iX6500. The print preview is B&W when it should be color and the print is B&W. The printer will print color just fine through any other application with the same printer setup settings. My old Canon ip 4300 will print color through both Corel X5s - no problem. the printer was installed after installing X5 if that matters. I'm thinking about uninstalling and reinstalling the software.

I've been trying to print an image I made with GIMP in cyan colour, but the printer prints it in green. I even tried to print at Staples, but it still comes out in either green or regular blue. How to fix this discrepancy? Shouldn't you be able to print the image exactly as it is shown in GIMP or is there an issue involving JPEG files?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe soft-proof of an image in CS6 gives a very good rendering based on a given paper profile for my printer. However subsequently, with proper settings in the Print Settings dialogue box, the image represented often has colors that are far from the earlier soft-proof rendering and are thoroughly inaccurate.
The image prints correctly, having no resemblance to the image appearing in the dialogue box, but coming quite close to the soft-proof simulation. Is something amiss? On a system running Mac OS 10.8.
