9.4 Pro Color Printing Issue

Ever since I update from acrobat 9.3 to 9.4 all printing is black & white. I have gone to all settings I can find and can not seem to discover what has happened. Reader 9.4 prints color just fine. Anyone have any ideas?

Have you tried going back to the default print settings in the Print dialog under the Advanced button and select Acrobat Default under the Settings dropdown?

CS3 PRINTING VERY DARK COLOR PRINTS ISSUE

Hi,
This is the situation:
I work on an Eizo CG241W calibrated monitor, and Epson 9880, 9800 and 4800 printers profiled with i1 PRO and EYE-One Match Software. But recently we made a move from Windows to Mac, and since then the color prints are being printed much darker then they used to. I havent been able to figure out was causing it. The issue is the same with all printers.
With the black and white prints printed in Advanced B&W and selecting "normal" (not dark, or darker...) they come out perfect. Just as in the screen. But not the color prints. I need to make them really look very very light on screen to get them where they should. Before I needed to make them lighter, but not as much as now. Same images and files Im talking about. Ive used Epson canned profiles and im having same results, variations, but as dark as with the created profiles.
Thanks for reading and any help on this.
Best,
Alex

Hi,
Thanks Seth, Ballard, Lundberg, and everybody.
The problem has been solved but the mystery remains.
The issue wasnt in the steps needed to print. Thats what I do in the studio where I work most of the time. We calibrate monitors daily and the printers every month more or less. Ive been doing it here for over a year with no problem. This started when we changed platforms and equipment.
However, tired of this, we decided to wipe out clean the printers mac station. Reformat, reinstall all software and drivers, reconfig, etc. And now is working. What was the problem? Who knows.
Thanks again to all,
best,

I am using Aperture 3 to edit RAW and JPEG photo images on my Macbook. I am having color printing issues with my Canon MP640 Pixma color printer. The image I see on my macbook is not reciprocated in printing from my printer?

My issue is that I am not getting print quality compared to the image I see on my screen. Just recently it has been very wishie washie. My printer is supposed to be excellent for producing color prints
I have contacted Canon support but they told me that the signals that are sent to the printer originate from an Apple product, therefore, it is an Apple mac problem not there's. I am wondering if my on screen proofing and/or printing profiles are correctly set. I notice that in 'print profiles' there are nine different options for printing from my particular printer. How confusing is that?
I have also found that when I choose a high standard print option my photo print comes out very red.
Can some kind person please help me? I don't seem to be getting any help from anyone else! Thanks in anticipation.

You didn't mention any color calibration being done on your monitor. This is an essential part of any color-correct workflow. What are you using to calibrate your monitor (and your printer)?
Print profiles (for soft-proofing as well as printing) are for specific combinations of paper & printer. The nine you have are each, most likely, for a common paper (perhaps mfr'd by Canon) to be used with your printer.
I don't know what you mean when you say "I choose a high standard print option".
Have you read the User Manual chapter on printing?
Printing Your Images
There is also a good appendix on calibration:
Calibrating Your Aperture System

Canon ICC profiles and color printing issues

I use two Canon printers -- an all-purpose MP460 and a iP4000 for photos.
I use Canon's Photo Paper Plus Glossy II paper and Canon inks.
I print with color management off in the "Print Settings" and by selecting the ICC profile from the drop down in the Aperture print window.
Since updating to Snow Leopard, the MP460 prints images that are consistently dark using the "SP" ICC profiles.
The iP4000 has an issue in that it prints images from Aperture with magenta cast in areas of yellow to orange tones.
I have had prints made through online services that have come back accurate, so I am wondering . . . is this a Canon profile or driver issue? I haven't tried printing from Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as of yet.
Any suggestions?
It is very, very frustrating since prints from these printers were fine before Snow Leopard.

I have a Canon IP5200 and had numerous problems with Aperture printing from OS X10.6.2.
In November Canon came out with new print drivers. With SNL 10.6.2 update and new canon drivers my prints come out pretty well using canon's ICC profiles. I use the PR3 canon ICC with Costco (Kirkland) paper and am pleased with the results. Hope that helps

HP 8500 All In One COLOR print issues

My all in one will not print in color, I have just replaced all of the cartridges and even ran a TEST page and all other available diagnostic functions with no success. I also checked the print options to be sure COLOR was selected and everything including the print test comes out in BLACK only. Even the color level test prints in BLACK for all cartridges ...
Any suggestions on this issue.
I have tried printing documents from Word, Publisher and every other program with no success.
Thank you!

hi,
It seems to me that there could be a problem with the Magenta/Cyan Printhead of your printer. Try to perform the steps of cleaning the contacts of the printhead and of the printer, click here. After cleaning the contacts, try to print a diagnostic page to see if your printer will now print color. If issue persisted, then i believe you need to replace the Magenta/Cyan printhead.
Contact HP tech support at 1-800-474-6836 for any suggestions regarding this matter, they might be able to replace the printhead of your printer if your machine is still under warranty.
Hope these would help you!

Color printing issues

I am having trouble printing in color, the background is printed in gray even though I have changed the color.

It is possible that your printer driver, or even the printer itself, does some "color correction". Try to turn it off. (For example on a Xerox Phaser printer, you would set the color correction to "none".)
What is your LabVIEW version? I remember struggling with similar issues in the distant past where I "fixed" it by placing a white decoration in the back.
I just did some casual testing in LabVIEW 8.20 and everything turns out perfectly white. Maybe they also fixed some things on the LabVIEW side.

Color print issues

I installed new color cartridges in my printer today (HP Photosmart 6520) and the color is not printing at all. I have cleaned the print heads 3 times - still no color. I also checked to make sure the print in gray scale is turned off. Is it possible these new cartridges are defective?
Please assist.
Thank you.

Color Printing issue on Canon MP600 Printer and Mavericks upgrade

I realize that some people have been having problems scanning with the new upgrade on their printer, however, I am have trouble printing in color with the new Mavericks upgrade. Black and white is fine, but if there is any logo or color fonts, they are distorted. How do I go about fixing this?

I too was having the same issue where I was unable to print in color on my MP600 with Mavericks. It printed incorrect font, colors and distorted the size and placement on page . I followed the above instructions to download the MP600R via the Canon UK website and it has solved my problem.
If anyone is as computer illiterate as I seem to be: After downloading the MP600R driver and installing it, I went to System Preferences>Printers and Scanners> delete the printer currently listed>add a new printer and select the MP600R from the list of software to choose.
I have yet to delete any software/driver files related to the old printer, so I was able to correct the problem simply by downloading the new driver, deleting the current printer, and adding a "new" printer selecting the MP600R.
So happy it is now resolved as this has been driving me crazy for months!

Epson Stylus Pro 4000 - Printing issues

I am having trouble printing from Photoshop to my Epson stylus pro 4000. Specifically, I am not able to access choices other than plain paper, tracing paper and line paper for printing my images. The following are some screen shots of what I see. Does anyone out there know why this is happening and if there is some setting/compatibility issue. I would really appreciate any insights and tips for a solution. I noticed the problem when I started using CS5. I have also downloaded the most updated driver for the Epson and that didn't seem to do anything. Thanks!

I asume that you have updated the Epson printer driver via the Apple Updater? I had the same problem with my R1900. I suggest that you look at G Ballard's website. You will need to remove the Epson folder from your Library/Printer folder and from Print/Fax in System Preferences and re-install using the driver from the Epson Support webpage.

Having followed the above: my system is now working as it should.

Very odd problem with Canon Pixma i4300 (color printing issue)

My printer prints black text fine, including colorful illustrations. Also eg. test photo like http://printermaster.dk/TEST/Color_Print_Test.pdf are completely fine. BUT - when I print real photography on Glossy photo paper, in approximately 1/3 of the picture I got aprox. 1 cm pinker/whiter stripe. I did all sort of cleaning, including removing and flushing print head and nothing helps. When I'm printing the same on the normal paper, I got stripes randomly in the picture - eg. 3 stripes / 3 cm long / 5mm wide. When I print without borders, the symptom again changes - the upper 3cm seems to be fine, then I can observe some horizontal lines, then again a pinker/whiter stripe and then the bottom seems to be again fine. I did all sort of recalibration, printer head alignment, different sort of paper - the result is still the same. Any idea please ? Is it time to throw it away ? Also here are some results of the alignment, it looks very strange (vertical lines?!). Head alligments / service info prints / etc. : http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=06883978457109160756

MacBook Pro Color Gradient Issue?

Hey there,
I have a new MBP 15-inch with the LED backlit screen. Some sunset photos (with large areas of fine gradients), look pixely. I've seen the photos on a really nice CRT and there's no pixellation in the photos. They're 8 megapixel RAW files from a Canon DSLR.
Is this simply due to the LED screen's lack of color depth, or is my computer having issues?

Hi there,
I have the same problem here with my MBP (Mid-Summer 2007, 2,4 GHz, LED) and I pretty sure, that this started to appear recently and wasnt there from the beginning. I you look down from the top of your screen (in a very sharp angle) then the affected area where gradients look bad is looking blue colored. I attached a "screen shot" of the greek sunset and another picture and screen shots with the same issue.
TIA and greetings!

Konica Minolta page pro 1350w printing issue

I have a mac book and recently acquired an old printer from Konica Minolta (page pro 1350w). Since the printer is only windows compatible and I am looking Mac compatible driver for this printer. I also acquired 2 new toner cartridge for this so I want to use this printer.
Can anyone help?
PS. If Matt Broughton can see this message, would you please post the driver package that you posted here back in 2006 one more time? I saw your postings but the link to download the driver package for konica minolta printers is not working any more.
Thank you in advance and I will really appreciate your help.

You are the greatest! I was having trouble too and tried so many different things (I hope I didn't mess anything up in the process - knock on wood) to get this running and your link made it work. There was a site that had me downloading usbtb, some X Developer program, and finally I found your link and voila! thank you!

Officejet pro 8500a Printing Issues

Hi All,
My printer decided to stop printing everything this morning i have run all sorts of tests uninstalled the printer and reinstalled it and looked at all FAQ's i managed to get it to print, but the only issue now is that when i print of excel text boxes and their contents are not printing but everything else is. Please help very fustrated and ready to toss it out the window..........

Hi Danielle - A couple of things to try:
- First, go to Control Panel, Printers and right click on the 8500 and choose Printer Properties. Choose Advanced and cahnge from "Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster" to "Print directly to the printer".
- If that doesn't work, try installint the printer driver that comes with Windows (assuming you used the printer CD to install the driver initially). Once again, go into Control Panel, Printers and choose Add a printer, then scroll to HP under manufacturer and choose your model number.
Hope that helps.
