Re: [Digital BW] Purple cast on B&W prints

2002-03-10 by Michael Kravit

The cast you are seeing is most probably due to an incorrect ink profile. Having the inks profiled should help dramatically.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Purple cast on B&W prints


  B&W prints in Photoshop 5.0(grayscale)printed on my refurbished Epson 
  1270 have a purple-magenta cast. When printed on an Epson 600 they 
  appear as normal B&W, as they also do on the monitor. Can adjustments 
  be made in Photoshop to correct this? Is there something wrong with 
  my 1270 printer? Prints are on Epson Glossy Photo Paper with Epson 
  standard inks. Any help would be appreciated
