Photoshop :: CS3 / Epson 1280 / Dark Prints

May 26, 2008

I've been printing for years with PS 5.5, 7, CS, & now CS3.

I've always allowed Photoshop to manage colors,; No color Management selected in Printer Driver, correct paper choice as provided by media Co., correct profile as provided by media Co., in Print Dialog.

In the past, what I saw on screen was extremely close to the printed results.

I just started printing again, with CS3, and though the prints look fine on the monitor, when viewed in CS3's Print Dialog with "Match Print Colors" / Soft Proof selected, the image not only turns much darker, but there is absolutely no hint of highlight "pop" left----Even the effect of sharpening disappears. The white borders even turn to a dull, bluish gray & the entire image assumes a dark, flat, dull appearance, and that's the way it prints!

This occurs with image files that have printed fine previously, and have not been altered in any way.

I've tried reinstalling the Printer driver,

Photoshop :: Epson 3800 Printer Profiles Not Showing Up

Apr 13, 2012

When I try to print to my Epson PRO 3800, asking Photoshop to handle colors, this printer profiles are not available. I have this printer for years and have always used PS CS3 to print (and handle colors).

Now I have PS CS5 but continue to use 3 for printing to the 3800, because the Epson profiles disappeared from CS5. Now they have disappeared from CS3 too.

Photoshop :: Custom Profiles Not Available When Printing To Epson 3800 ABW

Aug 25, 2012

Photoshop 13.0 (CS6) - Win XP Pro SP3 32bit
 
Custom profiles created for printing to the Epson 3800's ABW (Advanced B&W) mode do not appear in the print dialog target dropdown. I'm forced to print out of PS 12 to use this feature.
 
If I select "Black" instead of ABW in the print driver dialog, I get my selection of ABW profiles in the dropdown, but I need this to work with the ABW setting.

Photoshop :: CS3 -- Prints Too Dark

Nov 30, 2008

In CS3, I'm having trouble getting my prints to match the appearance on monitor -- my prints are uniformly 1-2 stops too dark, color otherwise is very good. I have calibrated my Dell monitor with Colorvision's Spyder2 colorimeter. Prints are also a hair too dark in CS2, but not as dark.

Photos and Photoshop are in RGB color space. Printer is Epson R2400 with updated drivers I just downloaded and updated into Photoshop. I also downloaded updated ICC color profiles for the Epson Premium Glossy Paper I use.

Printer settings in Photoshop are: Photoshop manages color; Adobe RGB printer profile; perceptual rendering intent; black point compensation "on"; ICM color management; color management set to "Off". I'm using North American Prepress 2 color setting. These are the exact settings Scott Kelby recommends in his "Adobe Photoshop CS3 Book for Digital Photographers" for getting calibrated prints.

Photoshop :: PS CS4 And Dark Prints

Apr 18, 2009

Old: CS3 printing to Epson 3800.  New: CS4 prints dark on Epson 3800. Regardless of picture sent over.  Same settings as with CS3 and every variation I can think of.  Epson 3800 hasn't changed.  Only Adobe Photoshop version has. I can print the same pics from (example) Windows picture manager, and what I see on the CALIBRATED screen I see on the Epson, so this isn't an Epson issue.

Photoshop :: CS4 - Epson R2400 - Printing Too Dark

May 14, 2009

System: Vista x64 Monitor calibration: Eye One Display and basICColor Display software - profiled to basICColor's PrePress setting. Luminance is 130. Paper: Hahnemuhle 'Photo Rag Pearl' (with Hahnemuhle's profile) and Permajet 'Oyster' (with Permajet Profile) Settings in Print Dialog are: Photoshop Manages Colours, Paper profile selected, Perceptual Rendering Intent, Best Photo, ICM, Colour Management OFF (no colour management), Paper Type selected. Image is perfect in Photoshop window and perfect in Print Preview, but prints about a stop under and with a cast. What can I do to get prints that come close to what I'm seeing? Right now I can only get them if I brighten them such that, in ACR, the file would be way overexposed. This is very odd. CS3 was much better. Any ideas? Can I create a profile for my CS4/Vista x64/R2400/Paper Choice combination that will get me what I'm seeing on the screen?

Photoshop :: CS3 Prints To Dark And Then To Green?

Apr 5, 2013

In CS3 I am having trouble getting my prints to match the image on my MacBookPro Monitor. 

AT first the prints were coming out to green, so I calibrated my disply/monitor on my MacBook Pro.  It seem to make a slight improvement and I used the Apple calibrating profile.  Tricky to use. 

I made some  prints with my Epson 3800 Printer using PS to manage the printing. Still to green.  Then I went over the color settings in my Preferances and followed the guide lines i read in my CS3 for Dummies book. I made some prints which came out 2-3 stops darker, but no green. So then I tried making the prints through the Epson profiles and not photoshop and they came out lighter but way to green. 

The printer settngs in Photoshop are: Photoshop manages color; Adobe RGB printer profile, perceptual rendering intent, black point compensation on, color management set to off. 

I'm using North American Prepress 2 color setting.  I did not have this problem in the past, but I also did not know how often one shold czalibrate their monitor.  Should I try reinstalling Photoshop or do I need to download any update drivers or profiles?

Sep 21, 2012

I had a hard drive crash which required a new hard drive, unfortunately unconfigured. I am up and running but my printer, Epson SPR1900, produces very dark images with a heavy brown overcast.

Rendering is Relative Colorimetric. Prints still very dark with a marked brown overtone. Prints were beautiful before the hard drive crash.

Photoshop :: Printing Out Of CS5 - Dark / Muddy Prints?

Jan 9, 2013

I am having trouble getting good prints when printing out of CS5.  I have taken all of the calibration and profiling steps and my prints are coming out very dark and muddy. 

I am printing on an Epson Pro 7800 and I am a Mac user (OS X 10.6.8).  I contacted Epson and they suggested printing out of Preview and the images looked far better which, they suggested, points to something in Photoshop that is causing the problem.

Photoshop Elements :: Prints Too Dark With PSE10

Sep 2, 2012

My photos are printing out much darker than what is on the monitor display.  I have calibrated the monitor and changed the color profile, color management & color space numerous times and they I cannot see any difference in the prints. I've changed the printer settings, still too dark.  I have edited the photos and brightened them, still much darker than on the display.  I'm using Photoshop Elements 10 with a new monitor and computer.  My old computer and Adobe Photoshop CS2 program did not have this problem.

Photoshop :: Prints Darker Than Screen : Epson 2400/sony Artisan

Jul 3, 2006

Prints from 2400 look good, but darker (about a stop darker) and bit more saturated that seeing on my calibrated Sony Artisan Monitor.

I can get good prints, but I now have to add an adjustment layer to files and lighten them all up, a real hassle. I don't remember this issue ever before.

I've tried all the different rendering intents.

Photoshop :: Printing Out Of CS5 On Epson R3000 Prints Light Cyan And Grey Background

Feb 21, 2013

I have an Imac with Mountain Lion, CS5 and have just replaced my Epson R2400 with an R3000. Now the white background round the image is covered in small cyan and light grey dots. If the image fills the paper, then the margin is affected. But when trying to proof colours I am going through loads of paper as I cannot now print a smaller image on a larger piece of paper, then re-feed the same sheet through with another small image as the paper is now pale blue.
 
The R2400 was fine for proofing, as the image alone would print and then the printer fed through the remainder of the sheet without printing, leaving the rest of the paper white. I understood from that , that it was most likely a Photoshop issue and some sort of conflict with the Paper profiles. But, I have checked the profiles on my Mac and they are all version 2 profiles. I note that the few profiles that do work without the blue colour do have 'bkpt' in their profiling and that the ones for the paper I actually do use and in fact the majority of the profiles, do not contain 'bkpt'.

Lightroom :: Very Dark And Dull Prints?

May 27, 2013

I have used LR 2 in the past with Windows 98 and an HP Photosmart Pro B9180 shooting with Pentax k10d using DNG files and printing with few or no problems with minimal developing. I am now trying LR 4 with the same printer and camera but with Windows 7 and with little or no changes in developing the prints are very dull and almost black. I have the latest driver updates and am have the printer letting the application manage the color with the correct setting in profile.

Lightroom :: Prints Coming Out Too Dark - Calibration Workflow?

Mar 20, 2014

Yes, my monitor is an LCD and it is bright. It is not a proofing monitor. It was calibrated. I've been printing B&W from LR on an Epson printer (r1900 & r2400). I know proper color management. Turn off Epson Color Management, let LR manage color with the correct icc profile
 
Obviously I can do trial and error, brightening the photo until it looks correct.My thought is, is there a way I could print on one page Thumbnails or like in the film days strips with different "exposures." Then with one print I could pick how much of an adjustment is needed?

Photoshop :: Epson Printable DVD?

Sep 24, 2008

I bought an Epson R280 printer that can print directly on the DVD. But when I try to print from Photoshop, it always comes out off centre.

I tried to print using the software that came with the printer which worked perfectly. But I prefer to use Adobe (photoshop,encore, etc.). Has anyone else had similar problems or know of solutions?

Photoshop :: Prints From CS2?

Jan 29, 2007

I have recently upgraded from PS7 to CS2 and have not been able to get a decent print since. I used colour mangement with PS7 and had no problems (unfortunately I had a virus and PS7 got trashed as part of the removal of the virus). Whenever I print now I get prints that look to be oversaturated with nasty colour casts. The settings I am using are as follows:-

Print with preview
Colour Management
Print Document (Profile Adobe RGB (1998))
Color handling Let Photoshop determine colors
Printer profile Prem Semigloss 2880.icc
Rendering intent Relative Colorimetric
Black Point Compensation Checked

I then click on Print and select
Epson Stylus Photo 2100

I then click on Properties and select Premium Semigloss Photo Paper from the Media Type.

I then click on Custom and select PremSemi2880 from the dropdown (this has the Color Management set to No Color Adjustment and Photo Quality set to Super Photo 2880dpi. All other settings are unchecked)

I then click on OK and then OK again

When the Print Preview window appears it is horrible (which is what I would expect. It was like that in PS7). When I click on Print, the image looks though it is super saturated just as if the printer driver settings have been applied along with the Photoshop settings.
