Photoshop :: R1800 Colors Too Dark

Mar 17, 2009

old settings that matched were printer mgmt, Epson vivid gamma 2.2 paper
premium glossy, PS set on relative allow printer mgmt

...now all the prints I make with same saved settings are too dark and too
magenta

..using calibration on monitor from software based gamma program Samsung
magic eye can see all levels of black and whites with separation on webpage
test, do not have a hardware based tool

R1800 system display properties set to auto choose from profiles I see the

profile and the paper profiles there (later tried manual select ee089_3

>Epson default profile)

reinstalled same to make sure up to date

things I tried:

turn off printer mgmt, let PS manage, chose perceptual>>same exact results

as first too dark,too magenta

turn back to printer mgmt in PS, set to perceptual in PS, gamma 2.2 in Epson

driver>>same exact results

PS choose no color mgmt printer set to standard (was on vivid), try ICM on

sRGB (same as files & camera)

PS back to printer mgmt, relative printer set to icm sRGB input

standard>exact same results too dark, too magenta

make print in Windows wizard software>>same exact results

go back to printer driver-using my old settings that used to match>>
manually by sliders >set brightness up and pulled down magenta>>much much
closer to picture on monitor

have to make 13x13 display prints and am wasting ink and paper testing
all this (used 6x13 strips left over trims)

Photoshop :: My Colors Are Dark...

Aug 30, 2006

I am in Photoshop, all the colors are darker and more saturated. but when I save the file, it gets all light and not how I wanted it. Just to let you know, I am running CS2.

Much more full of color. This is what I wanted. I also might add that when I load pictures they are darker than when I open them out of photoshop. For some reason it just makes everything darker when in photoshop.

Photoshop :: CS3 + Vista + Epson R1800 = SLOW

Aug 26, 2008

When I select my R1800 printer in CS3 (it is not my default printer) all the dialogue forms throughout the printing process take about 2 minutes each. It practically freezes the computer. It happens immediately when I select the R1800 and disappears completely as soon as the last dialogue form is done (and the printer starts reacting).

I have Vista and CS3 working fine at home with an R2200 Epson. It works fine with the other printer on my network (a Ricoh Multi-function system).

Photoshop :: CS5 Paint Bucket Colors Do Not Match Selected Color Picker Colors

Jun 28, 2012

I recently installed CS5 on my laptop after first removing it from my previous machine.All licences were validated so no problems there.Now when using paint bucket in Photoshop, the colors that I select in the color picker are not the colors that result when I use the paint bucket.
 
If I create a new black canvas then the colors selected in color picker work with paint bucket.But if I attempt to recolor the background in an existing image that I import into Photoshop, I get the mismatch with colors when I use paint bucket. My method for selecting colors is the same in each case, I select 'set foreground color' and set the color using html values entry at the bottom of the panel.

Photoshop :: Colors In Print Preview Not Matching Colors In Soft Proofing

Jul 7, 2013

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.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Default Fill And Outline Colors Automatically Set To Last Colors Used

Apr 3, 2012

CDX5: Whatever color I select for fill or outline is now set as the default color for fills and outlines without expressly setting it as such. Until now when I left or right click a color with nothing selected it allowed me to set it as a default fill or outline color for graphics, artistic text, or paragraph text. It does not do that now.

Is this a "feature" that's been added that I somehow enabled? In any event, how do I turn it off?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Layer Colors To New Set Of Colors?

May 8, 2012

We are working with a company that will be sending us DWG files. They do not use the same layer colors as us and I am trying to find a lisp that would allow me to set up a table with the layer names and the color I want them to be so that I can quickly change all the layers to our companys color standards.

Example:

Layer 1 = Color 1
Layer 2 = Color 15
Layer 3 = Color 10
Etc.

I don't know a lot about lisp but I figure if I could find a lisp that did this I could plug in my layer/color assignments and it would work.

Photoshop :: Everything Dark

Dec 9, 2006

Calibrating the monitor doesn't help.....it means that the brightness of the photos is okay but then again everything else on the screen is too light.

Tried changing color prfofiles etc but no difference.

The strange thing is that it only happens with photoshop....cs, cs2 and elements. With oher programs as I mentioned the photos when dispalyed are the original brightness they need to be.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Colors 1-9 Appear As White - Colors 10-22 Are Wrong?

Dec 7, 2013

You can see in the attached screen cap that colors 1-9 appear as white on my screen and that colors 10-22 are not correct either. This is only occuring in one specific drawing.  Is there a preference that I switched somewhere that would make this happen? I have double checked that everything is ByLayer or ByColor that I can think of. If I insert this color chart into other drawings it looks fine. using C3D 2012. 

I would just restart my drawing, however it is the new company template file that I have invested many hours into and would really like to be able to keep working with it and not start over.  Or is there a good way to import and overwrite all the Prospector settings into a blank drawing?

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 :: Photos Too Dark

Aug 29, 2008

I am using Photoshop CS3. We also use Indesign CS2. Our photos usually come out really dark in our newspaper. Whenever I lighten the photos the color looks washed out but if I don't lighten them, they become extremely dark. Same thing with our grayscale photos. I have emailed another paper and they suggest we open the midtones on our photos and use a highlight dot at 2% and shadow dot range from 93-97%, depending on how much black area there is in the photo. My question? When they say open the midtones, where do I find the highlight dot and shadow dot?

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 :: PDF Colour Too Dark

Apr 16, 2009

I have a deadline for my art GCSE closing in and there's a major problem with my final piece!The actual art work is fine, and It looks fantastic viewed from photoshop. However, the printing company requires it to be in PDF format, and when I save as PDF the PDF file has darker, blander colours. Really noticable... I find with photoshop everything I print comes out darker also.. so I tried researching this and found out a bit about CMYK and RGB but to be honest I need someone too explain this to me in english, with no highly confusing technical terms. My final piece relies on bright pink and blue, and so I wouldn't want to waste the money printing it on A2, only for it to have dull colours.Thank you so much in advance I am extremely worried  (I've uploaded a JPEG to show how I want it to look when printed, and then a PDF to show the annoying dull colour change)
