Photoshop :: Cannot Print True Blue Colors It Will Only Print Same Shades Of Violet / Blue?
Jul 28, 2011
I'm running Windows 7 64Bit running Adobe CS5 Master Collection. But ever since I allowed CS5 Photoshop to control my printer (HP Photosmart Prem 310-C) to do a test print of a graphic that I created all of my Blues print a violet/blue color, no matter what color blue. It has even affected MS Word & MS Project when I try to print blue colored font or Gantt Chart blues will no longer print blue, but will print the same blue/violet color. I've even tried a brilliant blue which will all view great, but prints the same shade of violet blue! All my colors and Blues will view great! I've calibrated my monitor and I've reset my printer several times and still the same thing! I never had this problem before I downloaded Adobe CS5! A strange thing is that I can run check printer test and the data & image that is stored in the printer will print blues perfect, including running a copy direct from the scanner bed and it will produce perfect blues. I almost feel as though Adobe CS5 has possessed my PC and printer, how do I get it back to printing like it did before installing CS5 Master Suite?

I have a drawing where some lines have a 60% screening in there Plot Style. The print great from AutoCAD. But when I create a PDF and then print the PDF the Screened lines show up kind of blue / purple.
I am plotting to a Cannon iPF720 on 22x34 paper from Acrobat Reader X. I'm creating the PDF from AutoCAD 2012.

Recently I noticed that when I print on a certain paper (Epson Premium Ultra Luster Photo Paper) that a blue tint is being printed on the paper along with the image. This seems to be occurring whether I use a standard .icc file or a customized .icc file for this paper. Am using Adobe CS5 to manage colors, rendering intent relative colorometric. Am using an iMac with 10.6.8. and Epson 3880 printer. The only thing I can think that changed is I upgraded from 10.5 to 10.6 a few months back. If you look along the sides of the image below you can see what I'm getting.
Just for the heck of it, I just printed the same image with Photoshop Elements 9, and I am not getting this blue cast.

The print preview in Photoshop CC and CS6 is seriously flawed, though that may not be apparent if you are working in sRGB at 6500K and a 2.2 gamma, which most people use by default. In my case, using "old school" print settings (Adobe RGB at 5000K and a 1.8 gamma), print preview is now considerably darkened and blue shifted.
Fortunately, files print correctly despite the flawed preview, which is what you would expect if the display profile is being ignored. A recent attempt by Adobe to fix the bug in Acrobat Pro was only partially successful for users of the most current version. The problem is still being investigated, according to the Adobe staff participating in the Acrobat forum.
I don't print much anymore--relying instead on soft proofing--and rarely from Photoshop, so I just discovered the print preview problem now in Photoshop CC. Of note is that the last time I printed from Photoshop CS6, which was at least several months ago, the preview was fine. But CS6 now exhibits the same problem. All of this suggests to me the possibility of a more fundamental color display error than just a Photoshop or Acrobat bug. (I wonder if it might even lead to Apple.)
My setup: MacPro running OS X 10.8.4, NEC SpectraView PA271W (includes calibrator), North American Prepress 2 workflow (synced across CC and CS6). In print settings, Photoshop is set to manage color using Canon MX870 profile for GL2 (glossy) paper. Of note is that in any combination of color management and print settings, the print preview is darkened and color shifted (in slightly different ways per whatever settings are in effect). I have not tried recalibrating the display for 6500K and 2.2 gamma, (more accurately, not reveal it), but that would undermine the print workflow.

I just installed X5 and I'm opening files from ver 11. It's all opening fine, but when I click on anything, the screen flashes pale blue. When I look at a print preview - it's ALL a blue tint. Can't work with that. I'm running Windows 8.

I'm using PSE 11 on a MacBook Pro. My Blue Skies have too much green in them for my preference. I'm sure there is a way to change this, but how? Also, can I change the default 'blue skies' to something more to my liking for a long-lasting remedy?

for years I used Epson r1800 on printer management it usually matches the monitor image quite well I had not had any success using adobe color mgmt in the past
the images I am printing are sRGB and now they don't match at all they are too dark and cool (bluish) If I change the monitor to the match the printer then all of my files will look bad on screen changing the printer setting did not seem to change the actual prints

I understand the technique for changing colors of an object (New Adjustment level | Hue and Saturation). The question I have is I am trying to change a t-shirt color from Blue to a white color. I have used all the adjustments and cannot get close to white.

So I am working on this document and it has silver background. I go to print preview (Photoshop cs3 and cs4 on Vista) and I get color looking more like bronze looking but when I do print, it comes out just like it should (in working mode which is Monitor RGB with Proof colors checked).
This setting is the only one I've used to make sure image/psd looks exactly like what it should when printing. I tried the default Working CMYK with and without Proof colors but it's still showing me the bronze look instead of silver. I've looked on the net and no exact easy fix for this was found. I really really appreciate any help.
Another simple question is regarding size. I'm working on a document size of 17.5 x 8.7 inches and the actual Banners will be printed at size 175 x 87 inches (5 banners each at 35inch wide but combined into a big one). So essentially, I'm working at 10% the size of what the final print will be and my file size is 760mgs. You can only imagine how big the file would be if I work on the actual size.

I was mid-project when I realized my greys had mysteriously become tinted blue. I then continued messing with every color setting I could find, but nothing worked. And I'm sure it's not a display issue, because my other projects appear just fine. My whites are now (3,0,0,0), in both the document and swatches.

I've just used the align layers feature to stitch together 4 pics into a panorama view. It looks great except the sky is different shades of blue for each of the stiched elements.
Is there an easy way of somehow merging the different blues so you end up with a consistent blue across the panoramic view?

When I go to open photos - they are opening in blue-green-purple colors as if a filter is being applied. The color pallette is also appearing with the same blue-purple colors. In the layers pallette - the icon of the image appears in the normal colors and no filters, etc. have been applied. It's all starting from when selecting the photo to be opened in photoshop.

I want to take a blue color and make some monochromatic colors out of it.
1. I know how to add white/black through the brightness value in the color picker, though how do you add gray?
2. Are there some guidelines to how much white, black and gray you add to a color (in this case blue)or do you just pick any amount you like?

I have a business card that uses various shades of gray. When I print from Adobe Illustrator or make a PDF and print that with high quality setting, the grays print as pink. Light grays print as pastel pink; darker grays as pink+gray tints. Odd.
If I print using standard settings (Mac, Print, click Setup, choose Quality and Media in standard Mac print dialog, choose print for plain paper, quality=standard) the colors look normal but the quality is so-so -- the lighter grays print with a diffusion dither and there is an occasion light blue stripe in the gray.
If I print using quality=high, I get the pink. Light pink where I am using 40% gray, darker pink for 50% gray, a gray+pink mix for 80% gray.
Printing other docs using other apps have no issue. Just this document using Adobe Illustrator. And if I save as PDF and print using Mac Preview app, same problem.
See attached. Everything pink should be gray except the bright magenta diamond in the M.
Mac OS X 10.9.2, Adobe Illustrator CS 6 16.0.4, printing to Canon MP610 inkjet 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 recently upgraded my setup and my printer hasn't been able to print a nice true black ever since. My printer is a Roland SP 300 V and I use Versaworks. I upgraded to CorelDRAW x5 from version 11. When I send an eps file to Versaworks the printer prints a dark gray on RGB black and various greens for Pantone blacks. I printed a default test chart directly in Versaworks and the 100% K printed great. I pulled an older file out which was exported using Corel 11 and the black prints fine. I don't know if I'm doing something obvious wrong or what but x5 has a whole more check boxes and options when exporting an eps file and I'm starting to get lost.

I'm using Publish to PDF, click settings to view the tab and the last tab says 1 issue, "contain objects that fall outside of page".
I do a select all to see what nodes show up outside the page - none. Print Preview doesn't show what will be cropped.

Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. See attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.

By default, the PDF print drivers we use (Bluebeam, PDF 995) set True Type text handling to be "as graphics" rather than "as text" (see below), which makes for some ugly text. I know I can make this change and save as a .PC3 file, but all our page setups for sheets & templates in the office all reference these default drivers, so it would be preferable to change the way the default driver works if possible. Is the default plotter configuration editable?

I open a picture with blues or try to select blue as a color, it turns into purple. No where in the program can I do anything with blue. But if I save the image using blue (which still appears to be purple) it will be blue outside of photoshop.

Hello! I am using Photoshop CS4 and I have a Canon Pixma MP160 printer. I go through a company, GotPrint.com, to print all my brochures and business cards but it seems what I send them is never what actually prints out. I understand that LCD monitors show a different display, being RGB instead of CMYK?? but how do I match it close enough? I have been trying to print out my new brochure on my printer at home until I get it to print the colors I want - but it's a huge hassle & a major ink cost changing all the colors (mostly brown for some reason) to look good printed even though it looks terrible in photoshop. I've tried setting it in the print window to Photoshop Manages Color instead of printer. In the profile drop down I was told to select one with my printer name in it instead of working CMYK profile. But I have about 10 different ones and none of them say CMYK or anything special. Can anybody point me in the right direction to learn the best way to do this?

I'm creating a DCS 2.0 EPS file in photoshop CS6, and when I assign PANTONE colors to the channels, it glitches out when I print it from illustrator CS6.
Certain colors randomly will not print any data.
So I renamed the channels in the DCS EPS file and removed the PANTONE Spot color data, and that seemed to fix the issue. Is there a patch that fixes this issue?
