Adobe Color Printer Utility and PS CS6

When attempting to print without Color Management in PS CS6 (in the Color Handling section of the Photoshop CS6 Print dialog box) I get a pop-up error message that says I must use the Adobe Color Printer Utility. It refers me to this page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/no-color-management-option-missing.html
Yet the page says nothing about CS6, only CS5.
What gives? Is the Utility for CS6?
I want to use ICC profiles when printing but the Utility doesn't have any options for such.

No, it isn't required.
But if you are trying to print calibration targets (aka "no color management"), then you'll need it.
Why is that not in Photoshop? Because the OS vendors keep changing the print APIs and making "no color management" more difficult to implement.

  • Adobe Color Printer Utility and PSCC2014 - why is it required??

    Adobe Color Printer Utility was required in CS5 when one needed to print with No Color Management.
    Was this not fixed in PSCC/PSCC2014? When I have Color Handling set to Photoshop Manages Colors, in the Color Management section just about the Color Handling Prompt, a yellow exclamation mark appears and the hypertext, "Please use Adobe Color Printer Utility if you need to print with No Color Management."
    Clicking this link sends me to this webpage:
    No Color Management option missing | Printing | Photoshop CS5<------
    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/no-color-management-option-missing.html
    Is the Adobe Color Printer Utility compatible with/required in PSCC2014?

    No, it isn't required.

  • Adobe color print utility with Mac 10.9.2 Mavericks operating system

    Is the "adobe color print utility" compatible with Mac 10.9.2 Mavericks operating system?
    I am attempting to print without color management, using custom ICC profiles, and am informed that I need this utility to do so.  Correct?

    Hi Jeff,
    I am printing from CS6 photoshop.  It pops up a message in the printer dialoge box that Photoshop cannot print with NO COLOR MANAGEMENT and to download this utility.   I also downloaded it and I cannot open it, even tho I instructed the security to allow it. .. Perplexed aand confused, I am.  thank you!!

  • Adobe Color Print Utility Issues

    I am on a Mac 10.8.5 and when I open the Print>File dialog box of the Adobe Color Print Utility there is no option to set the colour management to off. I need this as I'm using Photoshop CC which doesn't have that option anymore. There are other options such *** paper handling or paper feed but not the colour management option or options to set the paper type. Has anyone got any ideas on this. I am also considering downloading CS2 as a work-around, does this work with Mac 10.8.5?

    Have you checked out this link? https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/no-color-management-option-missing.html
    Your suggestion about using CS2 won't work since this was written in Power PC code.
    The last version of Mac OSX that has Rosetta which allows running Power PC apps on an Intel Mac was Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8, so OSX 10.8.5 wont work for CS2
    An excerpt:
    Turn off Color Management:  
    Mac OS
    Expand the Print dialog box by clicking the arrow next to the Printer pop-up menu.  
    Use the pop-up menu in the middle of the dialog box to locate the options for paper type and color management. The menu choices and locations for these options change depending on your printer driver. 
    Set Paper Type to the paper that most closely resembles the paper you're profiling.  
    Set Color Management to Off. Some printer drivers turn off Color Management automatically. 
    Windows
    In the Print dialog box, select your target printer and click Properties.
    Set Paper Type to the paper that most closely resembles the paper you're profiling.
    Set Color Management to Off.
        Note: In some printer drivers, select Advanced or Custom to locate these options. 

  • Why does my Adobe Color Printer Utility application  only allow me to print on A4?

    I am finding the printer utility application  for printing colour targets only allows me to print on A4. if i change the paper size to a custome size it reverts back to A4 when i Go to print. Is this just the way it works ?
    If i want to send raw data files to the printer that are larger then A4 how can i do this .

    What printer do you have, make & model?
    Have you updated the driver, from the mfgr's. Web site?
    Good luck,

  • Print Setup says use Adobe Color Printer with No Color Management even though I have my .icc printer profile selected

    I have a ColorMunki Photo and a Canon Pixma Pro 100 that I have been using on my Mac with Photoshop CC.  No issues.  I must have changed something because now when I go to print, a popup says "Please use Adobe Color Printer Utility if you need to print with No Color Management".  It is telling me that my I am trying to print without color management and this method of printing isn't supported.  So, I reprofiled my monitor and printer and have brand new .icc profiles and it is still doing the same thing.  Can someone tell me the exact things that need to be changed in Photoshop in order to use my .icc profile for color managed printing?  I have no idea what I have changed.  If I change to a different profile that message doesn't pop up.  My document profile says that it is the same as the printer profile I am trying to print from.  Does the document profile need to be set to my monitor .icc profile or the printer .icc profile that I want to print from?  Any help would be appreciated!  It is driving me crazy!

  • Adobe colour print utility patch

    Why am I unable tp down load the adobe colour print utility patch.  I have followed the instructions, and all goes well until I run the downloaded application.  The window that opens does not have the required TIFF file.

    Thanks very much for your prompt reply.
    I have done as you
    suggested, but I am no further forward. No TIFF files appears in the
    window that opens when I run the adobe colour printer utility
    application. The only "progress" I have made is that when I checked for
    compatibility I get the message that the application is not compatible.
    I downloaded the utility from
    helpx.ADOBE.com/photoshop/kb/no-COLOR-management-option-missing.html.
    I WOULD BE PLEASED TO HAVE ANY FURTHER HELP THAT CAN BE OFFERED
    REGARDS

  • Color Print Utility

    Hi,
    I have downloaded and installed the utility on my Imac (I'm fairly new to Mac's), when I try to print Permajet targets on my Epson Pro 4000 I get the following:
    On startup I get a warning that the software was downloaded from the net, it happens every time so I have switched the warning off (not sure if it should do this).
    After selecting FILE - PRINT and choosing the printer I get "SETTING COLOR MATCHING MODE -30873" error message.
    If I click OK it carries on to the printer setup. The printer setting, color management, paper and rolls settings are struck thru and cannot be altered (expected). When you select PRINT, the above error messages appears again. You can continue thru the error message and print the targets. They look ok but are resized to approx 3/4 of the A4 size they should be. Permajet request the targets are printed at full size for profiling.
    When I close the utility I then have to eject it (like a disc) from the right hand side of the screen.
    I removed and reinstalled the program but it made no difference. I am running Snow Leopard and CS4, both of which are fully up to date.
    My questions are:
    1) How do I get rid of the error message?
    2) How do I get the targets to print at the correct size?
    3) Does the eject issue suggest that the installation is incorrect?
    Thanks,
    Steve.

  • Problem with HP Printer Utility and Mac OSX 10.5.4

    I have a problem with HP printer Utility. When a standard user adds a new paper profile HP Printer Utility asks to type an administrator's name and password to allow HP printer Utility to make changes. Is it possible to avoid this? Otherwise I have to give admin rights to every user because they have to be able to add new papers. HP printer Utility sharing and permisssions are set to read and write to everyone.

  • Printing to a PDF file directly Using Adobe's Printer driver and NO GUI

    We are on Oracle 10G running Oracle Forms/Reports 6i.
    I would like to be able to run Oracle Reports directly to a PDF file using Adobe's pdf driver and not oracle's pdf driver (not happy with it). (This can be done easily enough) using Adobe's PDF Converter as the Printer.
    My additional requirement is to provide the output filename to the Adobe's pdf driver and have the report be executed without any user intervention. How do I do this?
    Thanks

    Not following asking for more????
    I just want to create pdf files with Oracle Reports (not using the Oracle PDF driver) but using one I have and the I will process these PDF files using my own utilities.

  • Color synch utility and pdf files

    Today, my pdf files have opened in Color Synch Utility rather than in Preview. When I magnify the view to make reading easier it becomes pixellated and out of focus. Also, the side drawer showing pages of the pdf file isn't available.
    I dumped some stuff in Trash yesterday and wonder if I've accidentally created this dysfunctional behavior, but don't know how and had already emptied the Trash. I've tried restoring files and applications using Time Machine from a couple of days ago when things were working normally but without success.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi Bev,
    Not quite sure what would cause this ruling out corruption of size file. 
    If still having troubles porting the particular file I would recommend logging a case directly to support and attaching the file so we can test further.

  • Monitor sudden change in color/print quality and flicker

    I have an HP Pavilion a6112n desktop computer with Windows Vista Home Premium connected by VGA? (blue) cable to a Dell ST2220 monitor.  Everything was fine when all of a sudden my monitor became difficult to read and there's a flicker on the screen, particularly when looking at the desktop or the opening start box.  I can read most of the black print, but other print got very thin and faded.  You can't even see the outline of search boxes, and the address box at the top shows some readable print like "hp.com" but the rest of the address is very very pale gray.  My desktop background photo got washed out and also looks yellowish.
    I thought it was my monitor, but I took the monitor to the office today and connected it to my office computer.  Came on fine - no flicker and colors are great.  Now I have no idea what to do next.  Would appreciate any help.  Thanks.  (Not a computer expert!)

    Hi again ncnash,
    Thank you for the quick reply!
    Since you were not able to restore the resolution to your desktop's display, I recommend trying a different cord, as well as a different monitor to your HP desktop.
    If the issue continues, I suggest returning your system back to a restore point when the display was not fuzzy and flickering. This can be done by following the steps in this document on Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows Vista).
    Should the display remain unchanged, I recommend performing a backup and recovery of your desktop's operating system. To do this, please follow this resource on Backing Up Your Files (Windows Vista), as well as Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows Vista). This should return your system back to factory defaults.
    If the issue persists, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.
