Directory for printer profile (win xp) ?

hi all,
my HP P1100 has an srGB IEC61966-2.1 profile that is used by several programs.. including DPP and PSP.
When i open up the print>print job>profile>other selection, the window is blank clearly indicating that i have no profile, resulting in "color managed by printer" (aka not good).
Do i need to place this profile into a specific folder or am i SOL since LR want to use prophotoRGB as its output color space?
thanks in advance..

This doesn't sound right at all. Have you tested to be sure your printer driver is up to date? Do you get no choices at all in the Print module of LR when you choose "Other"?

  • Printing color Swatches for printer profiling in Photoshop

    This is the crime scene:
    I have two printers, a 9800 and a 9880. I want to profile them both with the i1 PRO and EYE-One Match Software. Half of the archive is in Kodachrome Slides scanned into Adobe RGB (a while ago); RAW files worked in ProPhoto. ALL we use is premium luster 260.
    I want to print the color swatches and dont know what option to chose in photoshop to print them: Let Printer Manage Colors, or, on the other side, select "Let Photoshop Manage colors" and Adobe RGB as profile and create a printer Profile that I will use to print the Adobe RGB slide images; and print the swatches again with "let photoshop..." and Prophoto as profile and use the created with those swatches to print the RAW Prophoto images.
    or else.
    Thanks so much for your time and help!

    You need to choose the "No Color Management" option in the first print dialog and then in the Epson portion, you need to choose your paper type under Paper Settings and then choose No Color Adjustment in very next dialog box. That way you are sending pure unadulterated RGB to the printer.

  • How to turn off color management in Canon MX860 for printer profile

    I just got my Spyder3Print updated with the SR software to calibrate my Canon MX860 on a Mac OS X system. I am using 3rd party paper (Kirkland) and 3rd party ink (uni-kit). There are no existing .icc profiles out there for this combo. I have been using canons "GL2/GL3" profile which does not give me, as expected, a good color match.
    When the program asks to print the target it says to make sure the "color management is off".
    I cannot find an "off" selection. In the "color mode" portion of the dialog box I do get to choose between "colorsync" and "canon color matching"???
    I was guessing colorsync and then I have to pick a printer/paper/ink .icc profile. Not sure what to use for this first target print.
    Not sure if that choice represents color managment off?

    Just got the answer from Spyder:
    his applies to ALL Canon printers drivers running under both Leopard and Snow Leopard and it's the correct "solution" to get them to print without color management (a critical, unavoidable requirement for building custom printer profiles with any 3rd party printer profiling solution).
    Make sure you're running OSX 10.6.2 or whatever the latest is. There have also been some Canon driver updates that will show up in System Preferences:Software Update, so make sure you've got nothing left to apply as an update. Another way to make sure you have the latest Canon driver installed: go to Print & Fax, select your current Canon driver, and click on Options and Supplies... to see what version it is. (It should be 10.26.0.0 or later, and here's the Apple list of latest drivers for all printers):
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669
    If you don't have the most recent driver, then click "-" to remove the older Canon driver from the list. Then, with the printer attached and powered on, click "+", and add back the driver for it (this should download and install the latest version for you).
    Now: when you PRINT and want to turn off color management in Spyder3Print, THIS is the way to do it:
    In the Color Matching pane of the driver, select ColorSync (not Vendor Matching, or Canon Color Matching!)
    In the popup beneath that, you'll see "Automatic"; a list of all the Canon standard profiles; and a command to choose from other profiles. Use that last command to see a list of all profiles on your system.
    Select "Generic RGB" from the list. (this is the key). Then say OK and you'll see that "Generic RGB" shows beneath the ColorSync radio button in the Color Matching pane. This is the secret to disabling color management with the Canon drivers in Snow Leopard (and it also works in Leopard, as well, although in that case, a warning gets displayed underneath "Generic RGB", which can be ignored)
    Select the paper type, output quality, resolution, etc. as usual and print the target sheet. (Just leave the Color Options pane alone)
    NOW you should get a properly dark (non-color-managed) target print. Measure this and build a profile.
    Printing with "No Color Management" from Photoshop actually works the same way. It invisibly pushes through "Generic RGB" or an equivalent when you choose "No Color Management" in its Print dialog, This is why, in the Color Matching pane of the driver, ColorSync subsequently comes up auto-selected and also disabled; Photoshop has done the same thing I just described "under the hood" and as a result, that choice in the driver gets "locked".
    When printing through the profile in Photoshop: do it the usual way. (Photoshop Manages Colors, choose the profile, Saturation intent, etc etc etc). It should work fine.
    When doing a test print from inside Spyder3Print: since Spyder3Print applies the profile internally to the image data before it's sent to the driver, you should set the driver up exactly the same as when you printed the target image (as I've described above), so this would be ColorSync:Generic RGB in the Color Matching pane.

  • Uninstall printer profiles

    I have printer profiles for printers I no longer have.  How do I delete/uninstall.  I tried right clicking but I get an error IF one of the options is uninstall.
    thanks

    I go to File/Print and the Print dialogue window opens.  On the right side is an option for Printer Profile.  e.g. Pro38PGPP for Epson glossy paper.  If I click on the down arrow I get a large list of installed printer profiles. e.g SPR2400 Matte Paper - HW.  SInce I no longer have an Epson 2400 printer I want to delete this profile.  If I go to the folder that has the profile and delete it or move to another folder, it still shows up in the list.  I do close CS4 and then restart.  The named profile still is displayed in the list.
    Thanks for helping.

  • Re Printer Profile MX925

    Hi All  I have a MX925 all in one printer  in the settings for printing in photoshop elements 13 there are lots of options for printer profile i.e  Cannon MX920 Series gl2, gl3 , MP2,  PT1 , PT2, PT3 , SG2/LU2, and SG3/LU3 . How do you know which to choose of these profiles ?              Regards                   Mike

    I don't think that they are different. In my view the "Working RGB' shows the current working profile.

  • Profile PhotoShop for printer at Costco.

    I want to profile PhotoShop for printer at Costco. I have the Costco profile. How do I tell photoshop that I want to see the images as they will be printed?

    Where did you install the profiles?
    …and did you reboot your machine afterawrds. or did you at least log out and back in?
    You have provided no information about your setup at all (shame, shame!) so I can't comment until you do.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

  • PNG colour profiles - and this format for print

    I know it's taboo to talk about PNG for printing.
    But I can't find and I've searched the forums - there was a post made about embedding colour profiles a while ago.
    I know PNG is a RGB only format, but I'm 36.8% sure I read something about embedding either RGB or ... wait for it CMYK profiles into PNG files.
    If anyone can shed any light on this - and how about PNG for print - I've been against it for a long time - but it is a lossless format, it can carry 64 bit data.
    I know I know - but I thought I'd ask anyway - see what people think.

    You can't save a PNG with a profile out of Photoshop, but it looks like you can embed one via the image events scripts that ship with OSX (/Library/Scripts/ColorSync/embed). Unfortunately ID ignores the embedded profile and uses the document's assigned profile instead. PNGs do respond to ID's RGB profile and the RGB profile will have an effect on the CMYK separation when it happens.
    Here's ProPhoto and sRGB:
    From your ID document you can also assign a profile, which conflicts with the doc's profile, by selecting the png and choosing Image Color Settings.... So, you could assign AdobeRGB as your doc's profile and assign sRGB to all your pngs.

  • Impact on roaming profile accounts if we Change User logon Name to Employee Number format in Active Directory for all User accounts

    I want to understand if we change User logon Name to Employee Number format in Active Directory for all User accounts, then what would be the impact on existing profile. Whether we need to change it manualy or it will connect to same profiles in terminal

    Kindly let me know the proper process to overcome with this, how to connect same existing roaming profile with employee number format change.

    Hi,
    What if we change the user name of user account, will it have impact on roaming profiles.
    Yes, it will affect roaming profiles. Please rename the roaming profile folder as the new user account name, in addition, change the profile path in ADUC.

    You need to ask the printing service provider. Dealing with color totally depends on the printing process involved and of course the machines used.

  • Photoshop Black and White profile for printing

    I'm a black and white photographer, so this issue is extremely important for me to resolve. I've been looking online and I have yet to find the answer, so I hope someone can help.
    I need to know how to set up the black and White profiles in Photoshop for printing. The printer I have is a canon Pixma Pro 9000 a mark II
    I need true black and white. Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions. If you need me to provide additional information let me know.

    I frequently print black & white work on an Epson, using the Advanced black & white feature in the print driver.
    A quick internet search found that there is something similar for Canon -  Canon : PIXMA Manuals : Digital Photo Printing Guide : Black and White Printing
    I print scanned grayscale files, and have the grayscale profile in PS set to Gamma 2.2.
    If you are printing digital photos, they will be RGB, but that will probably not make any difference. But you have to read the documentation for the Canon to find out if it will. IOW - if the image should be Grayscale or RGB.
    One very important thing when printing like this is to set the printer to manage colors (not PS) in the PS Print dialog.
