New printer new profiles new problems

2006-07-29 by Johnny Eades

Help folks,

I have a new Epson R2400 printer and am having great difficulty
creating a workable profile with PFP 1.1.1. I have followed the same
procedure as when creating profiles for the Epson 1280, but seem to
get very dark prints. The monitor is calibrated with the Spyder with
PFP as the profile creator. The prints from within PFP look ok, but
using the profile to print from Photoshop is where I am obviously
making my errors. I set up the printer in Photoshop to let Photoshop
determine colors. The workspace is Adobe RGB 1998. In the printer
driver settings I choose Quality option=Photo;
Advanced=colormanagement=ICM with Off(no color admustment), assuming
that means color management off for the printer and letting Photoshop
manage it.
