Can't access Color Management options for HP 6700 under Mac OS 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion)

Hello.
I've got the HP Officejet 6700 Premium e-All-in-One and I can't find any way to access Color Management options.
The printer is attached (Wi-Fi) to my iMac running Mac OS 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion).
I want to correct a magenta cast to photographs that I've printed.  I've had the magenta-cast problem under Lightroom and using Preview to print the photographs, so now I want to work with color profiles in Photoshop Elements.
Photoshop Elements recommends that I "disable color management in the printer preferences dialog".
However, I'm not able to find color management preferences for the 6700 in any of the settings under Mountain Lion:
Not under (Apple) > System Preferences > Print & Scan.
Not under (HP Utility) > Open Embedded Web Server.
Not under (HP Utility) > Printer Settings.
Not under Preview's print dialog.
Nor can I find any clear direction in the online help (at HP or elsewhere) that I've read so far.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thank you!
Michael

Please note that in the Print dialog I get "Color Matching" not "Color Management."
Still, I am (at this point) able to control color from Photoshop Elements, so that's good enough to proceed.
Thanks again.

  • How can I access old Entourage emails to import them into Mac Mail after upgrading to OS Lion?il

    How can I access old Entourage emails to import them into Mac Mail after upgrading to OS Lion? I don't really want to go back to Snow Leopard in order to access the old Microsoft Applications, but they simply aren't supported in Lion.

    In Mail you can select Import Mailboxes... from the File menu. There is an import from Entourage feature.

  • Changing color management options for printing not possible

    I got a problem with Leopard and a Canon i9950 printer. When I choose "Color Matching" from the "print options" pop-up menu, I cannot select "Color Sync" or "In Printer". "Color Sync" is selected, but both options are greyed out and not changeable. So it`s not possible to do a printer color calibration. With Tiger everything worked fine with that printer.

    Are you seeing this is all applications or perhaps just in Photoshop or Aperature?

  • HT201771 How can I edit my address options for sending mail in Mac Mail?

    I've had a mac.com address for many years. I also have an alias for my business mail. Since iCloud, every time I go to send an email, I have to select from mac.com, me.com, or iCloud.com versions of both addresses.  I am not interested in changing to either 'me.com' or 'iCloud.com', and would prefer to see only what I use.  Any suggestions?

  • HP Deskjet 5100 Stuck on Grayscale - Color Management Options unavailable in printer settings

    Hello!
    My printer is an HP Deskjet 5100 on Mac 10.8.5. It is stuck on grayscale when printing. No matter what program I try to print in I do not get the color management option, even when checking in the advanced options. 
    On photoshop it's also stuck to grayscale.
    I have printed a test page successfully in color. But for some reason no program will print in anything but grayscale. 
    I have tried to update the drivers, but according to the HP website/driver check everything is up to date.
    Other information:
    In printer options, I can't even check my cartridge levels. I receive the following message: Information Not Available
    In ColorSync Utilites, under Devices, it says Printer Mode is: "Gray". When I try to assign a different color profile to it, it doesn't take. 
    I have done a hard reset on the printer. 
    I have removed completely and resynced the printer with the computer again in System Pref/Print & Scan
    Any information would be amazing. I have checked every forum I could find online,

    Hi,
    Your printer is not compatible with Mountain Lion, therefore the Mac use a Generic PCL driver which is Black & White driver only:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01856359&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=304431&task...
    You may try a 3rd party driver as HPIJS, it seems to support your printer and will more likely provide you a better results than a generic driver.
    Be sure to install any of the 3 required downloads before adding the print queue:

  • Hot to create color profile if I can't disable color management?

    I have Canon PIXMA iP4600 printer. I wanted to create custom color profile for Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy paper, but I can't disable color management in the Print dialog. There are two options: SolorSync (and I have to pick some color profile I'd like to use), or Canon Color Matching. There is no way to disable color management.
    I tried to create custom profile by choosing Canon Color Matching, but it turned out to be way worse than the original Canon profiles. Jeans in printouts are not denim blue but ultramarine! I suspect this is because profile target was printed with some color profile enabled.
    I just thought maybe there are some "fake" printer profiles out there? Profiles which don't translate anything and what goes in, comes out 1:1? This way I could work-around this problem.
    My problem is that in printouts I need little bit more more saturated greens and 4-7% less red component.

    Hello Guntis,
    As you have seen with the Canon iP driver, there is no function to disable color management, you either select ColorSync or Canon Color Matching.
    When you select ColorSync, your output will use the default profiles assigned to the paper stocks for the Canon driver. If you wanted to see the Lab plot for that particular stock, open the ColorSync application and select the Profiles pane. If you then expand the Other entry you will see all the profiles for the default paper stocks for your iP4600 and their respective color gamuts.
    If you then wanted to check which paper stock matched the code names, such as SP, MP and PR, you could select to print from an application and open the Color Matching menu. If you then set the option to ColorSync and leave the Profile set to Automatic, then open the Quality & Media menu and select Photo Paper Plus Glossy and then switch the menu back to Color Matching, you will notice that there will be writing under the Profile menu, stating the profile used - in this case SP2.
    If these default values are not delivering the color output you want, then I suggest you set the Color Matching menu to Canon Color Matching and then use the Color Options menu to tweak the Magenta and Cyan values to boost the greens and reduce the reds.
    Note that you should also set your application to let the printer manage the color.

  • Color management settings for the best print output

    Color Management while Printing has been one of the challenging areas which has been discussed a lot over user forums and has been a painful area in terms of clear understanding while taking print outputs.
    Here is an easy-to-understand KB (Knowledge Base) article ‘Color management settings for the best print output’ to help you get the best from your printers using PSE and bridge that knowledge gap.
    This article explains color management in Photoshop Elements, how to get better prints, and addresses some of the following issues like horizontal/vertical streaks in print output, too dark or too light print output, ICC profile problems and Color differences between prints from PSE and other applications.
    Thanks,
    Garry

    Thanks Noel.
    Yes have shared in PSE forum as well. But I usually drop such posts on PS General forum so community moderators as well as our power users who mostly use both PS or PSE or are aware about can communicate to their students, audiences etc.
    The idea is to reach out the message to as many as folks via relevant forums. Most of my otehr posts have found mentioned only on PSE forum.
    Thanks for the feedback Nice to hear such a great feedback within 5 mts of publishing

  • EPS: Postscript Color Management option accessible through scripting?

    Hi,
    I have a problem with Photoshop EPS file when the "Postscript color management" option is activated.
    Is there a way to check that this option is activated?? I was not able to find it with ScriptDebugger inspector or even in the user interface.
    The option is read from the document because when you save the document the dialog that appears display the option state with the appropriate status (when in was previously saved).
    I want to do a batch to identify image that have this option set, so it has to be a non-interactive solution!
    I'll continue searching on my own, but any help is appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Well...
    The only "productive" way i have found was to build a application that read the document as text and seek in the file for a specific pattern (i had the file with and without the option, the eps was in readable format so i was able to do so).
    I already had a program to go trough all the files, it was just a few lines of code.

  • Best Color Management Settings for Web in CS3

    I've seen tons of info on what color management settings can be used in CS3, but most seemed to favor work for printing. I'm just wondering what settings people think are best for color and B&W photo web work in particular... I already have both the monitor and PS set for 'sRGB IEC61966-2.1', but other than that, there seems to be a lot of opinions. I just want everything to have the best chance of looking the same on other comps as it did on mine. I also have Proof Setup set to 'Monitor RGB'.
    Thanks,

    1. Calibrate (I use ColorVision's Spyder http://aps8.com/spyder.html , but any hardware calibration device will be better than calibration by eye).
    2. Set the Working Space to sRGB.
    3. Set the Color Management Policy for RGB to Convert to Working to be sure you are converting content to sRGB. (2 & 3 addressses pfigen's concern about making sure all images are sRGB.)
    4. Make sure your monitor is set to use the ICC profile generated by the calibration device.
    5. Turn off Proof Colors.
    6. Embed profiles or not, but if you do use the sRGB profile. Whether it gets used or not is another story.
    As far as B&W, pfigen suggests Gamma 2.2, which would seem to be right for PC. Mac users might consider Gamma 1.8.
    This should work well for most situations, but guaranteed consistency is an impossible task at this point.

  • No color management option is not available in photoshop cs5 mac

    Currently have CS5 for Mac; upgraded to Mavericks and now the "no color management option" in the print dialog box is not selectable. Any help with this please advise.

    If we're looking at the same thing that's greyed out (the Color Mode setting for an Epson printer), to make that active you have to first choose Color Matching, which is in the same menu that Printer Settings is on, and then choose Epson Color Controls. But on my Mac, Color Mode is already set to "Off (No Color Management)" even though it's grayed out.
    If it says "Off (No Color Management)" in the printer driver and at the same time Photoshop is set to "Photoshop Manages Colors" and the correct printer profile is selected in Photoshop, you should be fine.
    It's important to note that the only purpose for the Adobe Color Printer Utility is to bypass OS color management in order to print targets for printer profiling, not to print actual images. If you're trying to print an image, you shouldn't be using the Color Print Utility. The utility won't add back a No Color Management option to Photoshop itself, because that option has been permanently removed.

  • Can't get duplex print option for pdf files using  Adobe ReaderXI 11.0.04, Mac 10.8.5 with HP8600

    I get two-sided option for normal printing, but

    Thanks in advance.

    It depends where the pdf is located. If in the Finder or in an attachment to
    an email in Entourage, the message is ³You can¹t open the application
    ³Acrobat Reader 5.0² because PowerPC applications are no longer supported².
    If an attachment in an email that has come via Safari, the message is
    ³Safari can¹t open the file because no available applications can open it².
    In each case the menu bar is Finder or Entourage or Safari as the case may
    be.
