RE: [Digital BW] Importing 8 bit duotone images into Lightroom w/ PSCS2 compatibility enabled

Pierre, If you can do a screen capture of the Epson printer screen where it
says "best photo" then I might be able to make another suggestion. (Or
anybody else) I too use a Dell laptop with XP SP2 and Qimage, but until DHL
can figure out how to make a simple delivery, I am still waiting to up grade
my CS suite to CS3 Design + .  I have printed with LR just to try it and see
if I was having problems like some were talking about.

Eric,

I use Windows XP w/ Lightroom + PSCS2 + QImage Studio to print on an Epson
2200. I haven't used Lightroom to print yet. I do mostly color but am
getting back into B&W from wet darkroom techniques from eons ago when I was
in high school.

I would like to help you by doing a screen capture but I am unclear what you
whish me to capture.

Are you asking me to capture side by side views of the same image one in
Lightroom and one in PSCS2?

Please clarify what you described in your message.

Pierre

I did not do side by side comparisons through LR and PS or the same image,
but the image printed like it looked on the screen ( not the PFP image as
that was a colorized profile) but not too dark which was the complaint. I
don't have a 2400 and don't have the screen that shows, Best Photo, is that
allowing you to turn off ALL color management? Select custom and turn all
the others OFF. Choose your paper type and print. 

Pierre, What OS/platform are you using? You can do a screen capture and send
it too me, or post it to the group.

Pleased to hear you are working with PFP. As for Lightroom, its a strange 
situation; there's no way to turn off the "flavoring" to print a profiling 
target, but whether custom profiles (built from targets printed from
Photoshop or 
PFP, NOT from Lightroom) print properly from an image in that "flavored" 
workflow is an open question... it depends on a number of factors, certainly
the 
settings you use (some settings simply aren't available in Lightroom) and I 
suspect there may be a factor or two that haven't been disclosed yet. But
yes, its 
possible get nice prints from it... if it does what you want. 

I believe users are printing a file from Photoshop, and the same file In 
Lightroom, and complaining that the two prints aren't identical, rather than

editing in Lightroom, and complaining about the screen to print match. These
are 
two different issues.
