Problems with Epson perfection 4490 color profiles using photoshop cs6

I have some items that I wanted to scan with Adobe RGB color profile, with my Epson perfection 4490 scanner. I am on a mac using mac os 10.7 lion.
I go into the configuration settings in Epson scan & set it to colorsync, & choose Adobe RGB, then I scan. I checked epsons website for current drivers, & I have current drivers.
when I open up my scanned images in photoshop CS5, & CS6, & go to convert to profile, (to check what profile the scanner used), it shows the color source space as sRGB. I go to the file save as, in photoshop, & it only shows sRGB as the color profile to save in.
what is happening? why wont my scanner use Adobe RGB? is there something in photoshop settings I need to adjust? I have never had this problem before.

try downloading the iPHOTO TUTORIAL TEST IMAGES a bit below this link
and dragging the tagged & untagged sets into your various web browsers, image browsers, applications...
the iPhoto download contains a low-resolution reference image in five colorspaces (10 .jpg files, five tagged and five untagged versions of the same image) in sRGB, WhackedRGB, AppleRGB, ProPhotoRGB, AdobeRGB

    I use my own color profiles from Photoshop CS6/Mac Pro - how do I turn of Epson Artisan 837 printer color management?

    Choose Photoshop Manages Color in the CS6 print dialogue. At the top, click the Print Settings button and disable any color management settings for the printer.
    Edit: Correction, that's CS6 in Snow Leopard. In Mountain Lion, if you check the print settings, color management for the printer should automatically be disabled when using Photoshop Manages Color.

    I am having problems with my Epson Perfection 1260 Scanner since the latest update from Apple.

    Not sure this will help, but sometimes resetting the printing system helps. All your printers will be deleted and need to be addeda again:

  • Problems with jpg export and color profiles

    I browsed the forum but I didn't find any recent thread about the issue I'm experiencing right now, I wonder if it's common or it just affects me. Mavericks, Aperture 3.5, all up-to-date.
    I imported a RAW file (I tried with both a Nikon and a Sony camera), made a few adjustements and then exported the picture as a jpg. It looked good in the Finder, in Photoshop, in Preview. When I uploaded the file to flickr, everything was ok.
    Then, I browsed flickr via its iOS app and - surprise - the image is completely wrong: colors are washed out, desaturated, with an awful greenish dominance. I tried a few things and discovered soon that also opening the file on my Mac with GraphicConverter has the same ugly result. Same with the iOS version of Safari.
    I use ProPhoto RGB as my default color space in Aperture. I changed to sRGB: same result. I changed to AbobeRGB and te output is finally consistent through all the platforms and apps.
    Too bad I managed to do this only for one photo because, even if I changed the settings, every other photo I exported is still sticking with ProPhoto RGB. The problem is surely here because I solved it changing manually the color space to AdobeRGB with Pixelmator and re-saving the images one by one. But of course this cannot be a successful workflow...
    Any experience about this?
    Thank you!

    OK, I can reply to myself. The issue has mysteriously gone away - no idea why. Edit: The issue is gone on Desktop, with GraphicConverter. From iOS, pictures still look weird.
    About the exported default, my bad: I was using presets and they choose their own settings for color space. Still, no idea why the first one was exported in Adobe RGB instead of ProPhoto RGB (the default for "JPEG - fit within 2048x2048").

  • Adobe 2014.2.1  Windows versions 7.  Problems with Epson R3000  ICC paper profiles

    I've recently added an Ilford paper profile to my Photoshop.  The profile appears in workspaces and I can set the workspace to that profile.  When I try to print the profile appears when I set Photoshop handles colour management, but when I go to Printer Settings...... I only see Epson paper profiles.  Why can't I seet the Ilford profile to select it?

    OK, so 24hrs later and problem solved.. I moved the printer and connected it directly to the i5 running 10.6.2, then downloaded the latest driver using software update. Everything is fine, and I've got all those options back for setting paper type, quality etc, Great!
    Trouble is, now the old iMac Intel 24" wont print to the printer on the network.....

    Problems with Epson Stylus 3000 IP Ethernet
    The printer stops processing after reaching 1,72% of printing.
    The Ethernet Cards led is on and blinking green.
    I am running
    Powerbook G4
    OSX 10.4.5
    Epson Stylus Color 3000 + Cups Gimp Print v4.2.7
    I can se the printer in Epson MacAssist for OSX Ver 4.0.aE IP 10.0.0.6
    I can se it as well in Safari under the ip adress 10.0.0.6
    I have tried to test the printer in the Common Unix Printing System
    I can see the printer there as well.
    A test print here results in

    All my other printers work well and prints test sheets.
    The printer has not worked since Tiger.

    Can you please help me....
    I can't seem to get the Print Set up utility to find the Epson Stylus 3000 Gimp.
    I installed the GimpPrint Drivers that were on the Tiger 10.4.3 install DVD after I installed 10.4.3, and then updated 10.4.3 to 10.4.5.
    When I first installed 10.4.3, I didn't install the GimpPrint Drivers. I went back to the DVD after updating to 10.4.5, and then installed the GimpPrint Drivers.
    Can you please help me out in what I'm doing wrong. Everytime I try to find the Epson Drivers an "error:-50" comes up in the Printer Browser under IP Printer section.
    Here's what I'm doing:
    - I go into Printer Setup Utility
    - I choose Add Printer
    - I choose IP Printer
    - I choose Line Printer Daemon - LPD
    - I pop up the "Print using" and select the "EPSON".
    - Then I choose "EPSON Stylus Color 3000 - Gimp-Print v5.0.0-beta2
    - THEN I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE POP-UP! "An error occurrd while trying to add the selected printer. Error:-50"

    Hi Agung,
    Here is a way out for the issue you have submitted. I can't guarantee that this wayout work perfectly:
    Question:
    As we know that the dos matrix printer supports dos prompt and thus printing speed and
    life of the printing head is comparatively more than what we print the same in graphical format.
    So when I tried to print from SAP Bone in dot matrix printer, the printing speed is very slow and quality of printout is not good enough.
    Any clarifications on this regard would prove very helpful to me.
    Regards,
    xxxxx

    Solution:
    Do you use one of this printer types:
    Dot Matrix, Printer, Needle Printer, Citizen ProDot 300 , Oki Microline, Epson FX880, Epson FX890 ?
    Here the stepwise I have tried :
    In order to print using Dot Matrix printers, follow the below
    instructions:
    1. Run SAP Business One.
    2. Click the upper menu 'File' and select 'Page Setup'.
    3. The Print Setup window opens. Under 'Paper', in the field 'Size', select 'Letter' from the drop down menu.
    4. Click OK to confirm your selection.
    5. On your desktop, click Start => Settings => Printers.
    6. Right click on the required Dot Matrix printer and select 'Printing Preferences...'.
    7. Click the 'Paper/Quality' tab page and click the 'Advanced' pushbutton.
    8. Under'Paper/Output'=> 'Paper Size', click on the underlined paper size(e.g. A4) and select 'Letter' from the drop down menu.
    Note that if you leave the value 'A4', each page will be spreaded over 2 pages when printing using Dot Matrix printers.
    9. Under 'Graphic'=> 'Print Quality', click on the underlined value (e.g. 230X250 dots per inch) and select '120X144 dots per inch' from thedrop down menu.
    Note that in case the value '120X144' is not available you should select a similar value from the list.
    I did not test it yet and I am not so sure about the result but you could test it.

  • Canon pixma pro 9500 having problems with my print out. colors are glazed and missing colors

    canon pixma pro 9500 having problems with my print out. colors are glazed and missing colors
    i have prfiled the mac and printer wiht colormunki and uplodated the profile sucessfully
    i set the printer to correct icc profile
    print out comes out same with glazed colors and missing tones/colors
    however when i use the same printer on windows and with light room, following same icc profile, colormunki calibrated profile, the print our are excellent.
    i have also tried using printer manage profile using the Mac and Aperture and get same poor prints
    can  you please assist and thanks

    I've a Pro9000 and also use Colormunki successfully.
    When I use Colormunki, I calibrate both of my monitors and the printer/paper combination. Colormunki saves the generated profiles to the correct places -- I don't load or change any profiles after that as that would mess-up what the Colormunki had just done for me, and this would likely mess-up the prints.
    Though I double-check the settings in the print dialogue, the choice for the printer handling things is already grayed-out. Colorsync handles it all just fine.

  • Problem with epson v300 scanner and iMac?

    My epson v300 scanner worked well with my G4, but when I got the iMac it scanned photos with parallel wavy lines in the pictures' dark areas (looks a bit like wood grain, only wavy like an EKG monitor line). Got a new one since the warranty had run out, but it did the same thing. Called epson It yesterday and their solution was to get another machine (scanner), which seems pointless, since it seems it's more likely a problem with this model. I've used Epson products for years and like them, (except for the cost of printer ink), and would probably get another of their scanners, but want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong myself first. Any advice?

    Do not, repeat, DO NOT click on the blue folder!  Open the bloody folder after you quit Photoshop, and then highlight the Photoshop application icon itself (not the folder!) and do a Get Info (Command I) on the highlighted icon.
    Again, do not click on the folder!

    Im having a problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes  I'm getting cut edges/lines  in the video specialy if i have titles it comes up really bad , I took the same video to a friend of mine who have PC and he uses Encore , did the encoding there and it was just fine no problems! BTW I tried using doferent setings in compressor from CBR and VBR I even pushed up the setings to 8 or 9 BR and still no luck !
    does anyone have any idea ?
    Thanks in advence ...

    Let's focus attention on just the Sony. (What model and what resolution are you shooting?)
    For now, I'll assume you're shooting 1080i.
    Take a representaive clip  into a new sequence. Add a title.
    In your sequence, make sure field dominance is set to Upper.
    Set render settings to Pro Res 422.
    After rendering, export QT self contained.
    Import into Compressor (I'm now referring to v3.5).
    Select the 90 minute Best quality DVD preset.
    Open frame controls and turn on (click the gear icon). Set Resize filter to Best.
    Submit burn and check quality on TV.
    Good luck.
