|
|
Hi Everybody,
I need to print my portfolio fast so i calibrated my monitor, used the correct profile for my paper (Moab Entrada from Lost Luggae) and still my prints turn out magenta. I checked if the ink was placed in the right way and it was. Is there anyone who can tell me what buttons to or not to push? It's driving me crazy. I'm not looking for books that take weeks to read since iI haven't got the time, just the correct couple of steps to take.
Im using CS3 and OS X 10.5.8
Thanx a lot!!!

Frank-
The usual quick answer to magenta prints is double profiling, where you are telling both photoshop and your printer to apply the printing profile. Be sure are only having PS do the profile by disabling any printer adjustments. |

I just had this happen yesterday with my R1900,
I was printing, all looked great, I ran out of yellow, put in a new yellow, it showed full. I printed and, magenta prints.
I called Epson, I ran the check nozzle utility and it showed no yellow at all. I ran the nozzle cleaning twice and the yellow kicked in. |
