Color cast when printing from Aperture

I'm having troubles with printing since the last upgrade of Aperture.I'm using the Canon ipF5100.
When I print using Aperture the is a nasty greenish color. Now I've to switch to Photoshop CS3 to make a print.
Before the update I could make fine prints.
I have callibrated the screen and the paper I use.
I switch to no correction.
Who can advise me?
Kees Bakker

Kees,
This sounds like it's the bug with Camera Raw 2.2, rather than Aperture itself. I and many others on this forum had similar issues and reverting to Camera Raw 2.1 fixed things. See this thread and the link to the solution thread:

Good Luck!

  • Terrible red color cast when printing from aperture

    I have printed the same image from Iphoto as well as a windows machine and got very nice prints on my Epson R2880. However, every time i print from Aperture it comes out with a terrible red cast. I have tried the system managed colorsync profile as well as the generic one. (FWIW, B&W prints from Aperture on the R2880 come out very nice)
    Any other ideas?

    You may find it helpful.
    Thanks, but if you look in the archives of the Apple ColorSync Users List, you'll find thousands of posts from his Mac dating back to the beginning of the List.
    The principle is that you configure your device colour spaces to the largest gamut of which they are capable, calibrate them to a stable condition, characterise that condition in a measured test chart, and build ICC device profiles for those characterisations in your ICC profiling package of choice.
    You then capture and correct colour with correct colour previews, resulting in normalised exposures in an ideal CIE colour space. With you normalised exposures, you convert into output condition 1, output condition 2, output condition n which is what repurposing is about.
    But you do no apply a gamma change on top of the colour managed rendering. That is incorrect by definition. You apply your gamma change as part of the colour correction in order to get your normalised exposure.
    If you imagine this in a prepress process, then you can forget the concept of determinate rendering which is the bedrock of the ICC architecture. If you as photographer do a gamma correction on top of your presentation print or proof print, then you can claim that you have a presentation print, but you cannot contractually claim that you have a proof print as your proof print is a colour correction on top of the colour management system. If Apple Aperture allows the user access to colour correction on top of colour management, then that is a bug in the application. Sorry ...

  • Color cast when printing from Lightroom with Epson 3880 printer

    Just got an epson 3880 printer. Printing on epson paper is fine. But printing on Ilford or Moab or other papers from lightroom and photoshop have a terrible magenta color cast.
    WHen I print the same image from Preview, with the same print driver settings, it looks fine. So somehow the adobe apps (or my settings) are messing up the color sync.
    I used to have an espon 2400 which worked just fine.
    I have Mac OSX-10.9.1. Monitor is calibrated. (Prints to epson paper with their profiles look great...it's just other profiles that are really bad).
    I need help!

    Are you using moab icc profiles or are you using one of the epson profiles?
    I always use the moab profiles which you can download from their Web site. This way you are matching the specific epson printer with the specific moab paper.
    At that point you change the printer manages color to Lightroom manages color and select the specific profile. Very easy to do - they even have instructions on the Moab site for installing the profiles if you haven't done that.
    Once installed you can also use them through the system print dialogs in PS but it is really much much easier to use in LR - Since coming on board with LR last summer, I have switched to doing ALL printing from LR. Since you mentioned that you are having the same problem with LR and PS, I'm betting you are using epson profiles and this will solve your problem.
    Hope so

  • Magenta cast when printing from any app in Mountain Lion

    I get a serious magenta cast when printing from any application using my Epson R3000 inkjet. I am aware of the double profile issue. For example in Photoshop I let it do the color management. ML automatically turns off printer color management. My monitor is calibrated with Xrite Color Munki. I did not have this issue before upgrading to ML 8.2. Is there a driver issue?

    In System Preferences->Monitors->color is the correct
    color profile set?
    Do you you have the correct profile for the printer
    selected in Photoshop?
    Also, are you using Proof Setup in Views?
    Need to ask since sometimes a person can stare at
    something too long and think it is correct (done it myself often).
    It may not be a driver but an issue with color profiles.
    It is possible one or more of the color profiles may be corrupted.
    Go to Utilities->ColorSync Utility select and run Profile First Aid.
    See if problems found in profiles.
    Using PS CS6 myself and have not seen any such issues with
    color and 10.8.2.

    please can anbody help or advise?

    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?

  • [FIX] Darker prints and color shifts when printing from Lightroom 2

    Hi,
    The problem :
    When printing RAW or TIFF files from LR2, you get a printer output that
    is much darker than it should be and that presents various color shifts.
    I'm using an Epson Stylus Pro 3800 with the latest Windows driver
    (6.50 - which is rather old by the way). The workaround described below
    works for me under Windows XP SP3. It should also probably work with
    other systems/printers/drivers. Use at your own (minor) risk.
    The "official" procedure for printing from LR is as follows:
    1. Do not let the printer manage colors and select "Other..." from the
    profile dropdown list and select the ICC/ICM paper/printer profile that
    you want to use.
    2. Click on Print... in LR which opens the Print Settings dialog.
    3. Select the options you need and the paper you're using.
    4. **Disable the color management from the driver's side** (in Epson's
    drivers, "Mode | Custom | No Color Adjustments").
    5. Print
    Unfortunately, **this doesn't work** for many of us and this produces a
    print that is dark and has color shifts as mentioned above. Note that
    the same image prints correctly from QImage or Photoshop CS3 (that is,
    the printer output corresponds to what you see on your calibrated
    display).
    Apparently, although color management has been (allegedly) disabled in
    the driver, there's something wrong between LR and the driver which
    makes that *both* LR and the driver are still trying to manage colors.
    In other words, the "No Color Adjustements" option of the driver doesn't
    seem to work with LR.
    The workaround (found after hours of hair pulling and paper and
    expensive ink wasting):
    In step #4,
    1. Instead of selecting "No Color Adjustments", set Mode to "Custom |
    ICM
    2. Click Advanced...
    3. Check "Show all profiles".
    4. Select Driver ICM (Advanced)"
    5. Set **both** the "Input profile" and the "Printer profile" fields to
    the very same profile that you specified in LR.
    That is, if you specified Pro38 PGPP (Premium Glossy Photo Paper) in LR,
    then also select Pro38 PGPP in both "Input Profile" and "Printer
    Profile". This has actually the same effect has disabling color
    management in the driver (what "No Color Adjustements" should normally
    take care of).
    That's it. When printing, you'll get exactly the same color results as
    when printing from QImage or Photoshop. No more dark prints. No more
    color shifts.
    One might think that the bug is in the Epson driver but in that case,
    QImage would have the very same problem. So I tend to think that the bug
    is on the Lightroom side.
    Note: Although Photoshop CS3 produces a correct printer output, it
    demonstrates the same problem as LR when using the "Match Print Color"
    option for soft proofing. But in that case, only the preview colors are
    wrong. The printer output is ok. Which also tends to demonstrate that
    Adobe has the problem, not Epson. Or maybe both... :-) .
    Don't ask me why some users have the problem and other don't.
    Hope this helps.

    A sincere thank you for your reply, Michael. Sorry about the "it just doesn't make sense" shortcut. I have been trying to solve this issue since LR 1.1, spending dozens of hours on different trials and digesting everything written on this forum and the B9180 forum about color management and double profiling. My shortcut was a summation of my experience (and my frustration) but doesn't really advance the conversation. Here are some data that should be more useful in diagnosing the problem.
    I am running Windows XP SP2. I calibrate my monitor monthly with the Spyder. The reason I suspect this may be an issue of double profiling is because the results (moderately strong magenta overlay plus an increase in contrast) match what more knowledgeable people than I on this forum describe when double profiling occurs. Perhaps I shouldn't presume it is double profiling, and follow Patrick Philippot's lead in naming the problem "color shifts." Patrick does refer in post #2 of this thread, however, to obvious double profiling.
    I certainly do have a successful and consistent print method. With PS CS3, and either my Epson 1280 or my HP B9180, the output is almost always dead on. Here is how I do it. In PS from the print dialog box, under color handling I always choose "Photoshop manages colors." Then under printer profile I select the profile designated by the manufacturer for a particular paper/printer combination. Then in the printer driver I disable printer control of color. With the Epson I check the box "Off (No Color Adjustment)." With the B9180 I choose the option "Application Managed Colors." While I sometimes may tweak the final output, these procedures have served me well with PS for several years.
    Contrasted with my positive PS experience, my experience with LR printing has been inconsistent. I regret having to be so imprecise but truly sometimes LR produces accurate results that match the calibrated monitor, but most of the time it does not. I use standard procedures with LR that parallel the PS ones described above. In LR's printing panel, under color management, I specify the correct profile, just as I did for PS. Then in the printer driver I use the same procedures I use with PS. Most of the time the prints have the magenta overlay and too much contrast.
    BTW, the inconsistent LR printing only takes place with my HP B9180. I have never had any problem with off-color LR prints with my Epson 1280. Again, I emphasize that I have standard procedures that always work with PS (no matter which printer) and LR (but only with the Epson).
    Unfortunately the LR printing problems are intermittent. Some of the time (perhaps 20%) LR produces fine prints in the B9180, indistinguishable from PS prints. When LR is printing well, it will continue to print fine until "something happens" and the output shows the color shift. This means I do not get a random sequence of good-bad-good-bad prints, but rather good-good-x factor-bad-bad-bad. Ths problem is that I do not know what this "x factor" is. Once, when LR was giving me accurate output, I simply changed the default printer (Control Panel-Printers and Faxes) from the B9180 to my Samsung 1430 laser; immediately afterwards the LR output colors shifted. Did LR react to this change in default printers? Another time I had good LR printing success with version 1.2 but ran into the problems described above when I upgraded to version 1.3.
    Sorry for the long post. I am hoping that someone will see something that I am missing and provide a hint. I think, though, that Patrick is correct when he states, "I tend to think that the problem is with LR. After all, similar issues (obvious double profiling) are observed only in LR but with various printers."

  • Color management when printing from Reader 9

    When printing from Adobe Reader 9 (Windows XP), the Advanced Print Setup gives the option "let printer determine colors". I presume that if this is selected the colors in the document will be sent unchanged to the printer. So, how does Reader 9 affect the document colors when printing if this option is NOT selected? Also, was this the same in Reader 8?
    Thanks
    Steve Fowell

    It is using sRGB and that is the only color profile available.
    In addition, when I try to print 4 slides per page and 1 slide per page, the colors are completely different than when I try to print 2 slides per page.
    I have tried changing settings in print options and put them back to default and nothing I do changes the issue. Again, it only occurs when printing from Reader. Everything else prints colors perfectly fine.

  • Colour Casts in Prints From Aperture

    Hello,
    I have read reams of material on calibration and profiling -- probably too much, because I'm more confused than I
    was when I started.
    This is my set up:
    Nikon D300.
    Mac Pro + GeForce 7300GT + Mac Cinema Display (20 inch).
    Photoshop CS3 + Apple Aperture (2.1)
    HP Photosmart 8250 (with HP cartridges)
    This is my general workflow:
    Pictures imported from camera into Aperture. Best shots are roundtripped to Photoshop, tweaked and then
    re-imported back into Aperture as 16bit tiffs. A lot of these .tiffs are exported from CS3 in Lab Color Mode (I
    don't know if this makes any difference -- I'm clutching at straws!)
    This is my problem:
    A3 prints of my shots done by a local photography shop look amazing. The colours match the colours I see on my
    monitor. They're crisp and bright and everything I could wish for.
    However I have tried printing A4 prints locally (from Aperture) on my printer and there are different coloured
    casts that ruin the pictures.
    I have tried different Aperture device profiles... including the System Managed profile & the profile for the HP
    photo paper that I use and the shots have either a strong yellow cast or a strong pink cast depending upon the
    profile I use.
    My set-up hasn't been calibrated, and -- at this point in time -- I can't afford a calibrating device... can
    anyone make any suggestions as to how I can get better results printing at home through Aperture, please?
    Thank you very much!

    I no longer get a colour cast.
    I started with 1.5 and had some books printed these were fine. My old Canon 965i was used for printing and I got some casts adn I decided to get the B9180. Just before this I switched to Aperture 2 and now 2.1. Immediately I had colour casts and through this forum I found that I was not alone. The general view at that time was that it was a calibration issue but enough people who knew what they were talking about disproved that. The various options were to print through IPhoto, PS, PSE or some other external soutce. We all to a greater or less degree had some success.
    During this time 2.1.1 came out and HP appeared to offer an updated driver.
    In my case I re-installed everything, including the printer Firmware and carefully read everything that everybody had to say on the subject, thus in ColrSync I made sure that I had the same paper specified, that I specified it in soft proofing and that I specified it in the print menu and I variously set my Gamma between 1.05 and 1.2. I no longer have the cast but usualyl I have to do some tweaking and use a few sheets. Mostly this is with adjusting the Gamma.
    I cannot understand teh attitude of Apple on this topic and some others whereby they have professionals dependent on their product andthey do not, as I woudl expect in a customer support oriented organisation, even acknowledge teh problem, let alone give out any information. I would be happer (if I was a pro) if I heard comforting words like 'We know about this, it seems to be caused by xxx and we are working on a solution but in the meantime try bbbb.'
    The principle, in my view, should be 'You be the photographer, we will provide the tools.'

  • Pink colour cast when printing from iphoto

    When I try printing from iPhoto to a Canon MG6150 I get a pink colour cast.  The preview shows correct colour and I'm running out of paper with my attempts to sort it!
    What has gone wrong as everything else seems fine?

    Do you get the same results if you print the same photos from Preview? If not then it's definitely an iPhoto issue.  If you get the same it's possibly more of a system issue or printer adjustment.
    Check the Color Options (Printer)  and Color Matching (iPhoto) settings in the print window. You might try tweeking some of them.  
    Your print window should have something similar.

  • Red Color Cast when printing with Canon Pixma Pro 9000

  • Blue Color Cast when Printing

    I have just carefully calibrated (again) my Canon Pro 9000 Mk11 Printer and Asus Pro Art screen using Spyder equipment.
    Printing in LR4.4 consistently produces a blue cast.  I moved to Elements 11 and using the same just created profile printed the same picture/file.
    No color cast.
    I have LR5 Beta also so I printed same on it.  No color cast - to all intents and purposes identical to Elements 11.
    'Perceptual' setting used throughout and no 'Print Adjustment' used in LR.
    I am using Windows 8 64bit.
    Why should LR4 only produce a color cast?  The settings have been carefully checked ...

    Hello:
    I'm not sure of site etiquite, whether I should ask another's advice about a separate problem, but my dilemma is so much like this and I have not been able to fix it on my own nor with Adobe or Epson's tech support.
    I too am getting out of my printer only prints that have a blue cast to them. My printer is an Epson r2000. I print from Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CS 6 or now its Creative Cloud equivalent. Yesterday, the i7 laptop I have been using for photo editing (with a better monitor attached) started producing only bluish prints--intended to be black and white (the max whites are white but everything else has a blue cast). It also was apparent in color prints when I tested that alternative. I was not too concerned because yesterday FedEx also delivered a gonzo new desktop computer that I had ordered just for photo editing. I thought, "Well, I'll install all my Adobe stuff there and migrate the Lightroom files and everything will be OK." But, immediately, the blue-cast problem showed up on the new computer. I thought I probably "migrated" the problem when I brought over my catalog, images and settings from the laptop.
    I reinstalled the newly installed printer driver and reinstalled the latests ICC files for the papers I use (Ilford Gold Fiber Silk and Gold Fiber Mono), but the problem persisted. I didn't yet know about blowing off the preset files.
    I spent a lot of time on the phone with Epson yesterday and chatted at length (1 hour 39 minutes) online with Adobe tech support today. Adobe had me do what you recommended--blow off the preset files and begin again, all to no avail. On my own, I again deleted and reinstalled the printer driver and wiped out the preset files.
    Still, I get a bluish overlay on my prints.
    After reading your posts, I meticulously checked my settings. Everything seems alright.
    I did one other thing. I printed images that had not been imported to lightroom in Windows Photo View through the same 13-inch Epson. They came out perfect.
    Now, I just don't know what to do next. Epson and Adobe support have done their apparent best. I live in a small town at the end of the Columbia River where I am looked upon as one of the computer problem solvers (a degree in Literature notwithstanding).
    I've thought of blowing off lightroom 5 and going back to version 4, but, as I understand it, that would mean losing all my metadata for some 40,000 images dating back to 1966, most of which I had to plug in by hand since they are from scanned negatives.
    Do you have any advice?
    I am a little anxious because I am supposed to have prints ready for a show opening on July 27.
    Thank you in advance for any advice you may offer.

  • How to get  paper color profiles when printing from Acrobat

    Hello,
    I've been in trouble trying to print with specific paper profiles from Acrobat.
    I'm running on mac os 10.8.5, and the latest version of the suite (Acrobat XI).
    My printer is an Epson 3880.
    I can print ok using my paper profiles when I'm printing from Photoshop; the paper profils show up in the printer box,
    and I can choose from my different paper profiles, some of which I've installed recently, non-Epson papers.
    But those paper profiles don't show up in the menu when I print from Acrobat…
    Any hints why I can't reach those?
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Keth.

    Are you talking about the color profiles?  If so then:
    1.  Go to File>Print
    2.  Click the Advanced button
    3.  Select Color Management from the window pane
    4.  Select the Color Profile from the Color Profile pop-up menu

  • Color off when printing from iPhoto if photo was scanned in.

    When I scan a photo to a file or into an application and try to print from iPhoto, the colors are off. Usually darker than they appear in the photo. If I do a direct print from the scanner to the printer the colors look normal (OK). Any idea if there is some type of adjustment for this?

    What color profile do the pics have? Is the printer set to the same profile?

  • ICC profile conflicts when printing from Aperture?

    I have worked with Aperture now for two years, and I still have problems printing anything that is close enough to what I see on my calibrated screen. And believe me, I have done some reading on color management and ICC profiles. I suspect that Aperture pulls in ICC color profiles in a way that doesn't allow reproducing what I see on the screen. I wonder if these problems are related to the Registered ColorSync devices: opening ColorSync Utility under Devices reveals a bunch of default printers with a diversity of profiles, even if I have no access to these printers (in part these are network printers of my previous employment). I cannot figure out how I can delete these entries: I tried to find remaining printer profiles of these printers in my files, but could not find anything. How can I delete these entries, and can these entries cause color profile conflicts?
    More specificially: I work with Aperture 2.1.3 and view my photos on a calibrated 23" Cinema display, run from a MBP with 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 10.5.6, and 2GB of memory. My monitor is calibrated with a Spyder for D65 and gamma of 2.2. I print with an Epson 3800 on Epson paper.
    Here is my problem: despite calibrated monitor I don't get the prints to look even remotely close to what I get on my screen. Of course, I use the correct ICC profiles for my papers, and of course I have Aperture (and not the printer) run color management. It seems, however, that my prints resemble my monitor more if I use strange profiles such as "Wide Gamut RGB" or "ProPhoto RGB" as my monitor's profile instead of the calibrated D65, gamma 2.2.
    In detail, here are my regular print settings in Aperture:
    Print Mode: AccuPhoto HD
    Color Mode: Off (No Color Management)
    Output Resolution: SuperPhoto - 1440 dpi
    Advanced Color Settings: Epson Driver Color Management is Off.
    In the Aperture Print menu I use under Printer Selection:
    ColorSync Profile: for example, Pro38 PGPP, when I use Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy
    Black Point Compensation checked.
    Gamma: 1:00
    Under Layout Options I use Print Resolution: Use Best DPI
    With these settings the prints look significantly colder than what I see on the screen. Of course, a certain amount of the warmth of the screen colors comes from the calibration to D65 and gamma of 2.2, but shouldn't this give me the best correspondence between the calibrated screen and the print (using of course the color management of the application with ICC profiles, not the printer driver color management)?
    I tried the same in CS4 and Lightroom, but no difference. Again, the problem is not that the prints are terrible: they are just not very close to what I see on the calibrated screen.
    Where do I make a mistake? All suggestions are very welcome! This is driving me crazy. Many thanks for your help!
    Best,
    Kai

    While the technical aspects of color management are complex, they are largely irrelevant for users.
    The following steps have worked well for me:
    Step One: Calibrate your monitor. I use the Datacolor Spyder. This produces a monitor profile. Use System Preferences to set your monitor to use this profile. Don't use this profile for anything else and give it a clear name so that you don't confuse it with a printer profile.
    Step Two: Download and install the latest drivers for your printer. Buy a small box of photo paper (gloss, semi-gloss) from the manufacturer of your printer. Make sure that you have the correct ICC profiles for this paper and printer. You are trying to establish a baseline.
    Step Three: Pick an image with a reasonable range of colors and exposures. (Don't start with a "difficult" image.) Turn soft proofing off and adjust the image as desired.
    Step Four: Send this image to the printer. Load up the manufacturer's paper.
    Step Five: In the "print" dialog, go to the "Printer Settings" sub menu and select the correct "Quality and Media" and the appropriate setting for "photo" quality. Make sure that all of the color options are neutral. Save.
    Step Six: Back on the "Print" dialog select the correct ICC profile for your paper/printer. (Careful, DON'T use the calibrated monitor profile!) Adjust other settings as required. Save and name the preset.
    Step Seven: Print and Pray. (And pray I haven't missed a step - sorry I'm not at my Mac. From your initial post, it sounds like you know how to do all of this.)
    The results should be reasonably close. (That is why you should use the printer manufacturer's own paper and profiles as a starting point.)
    If you are happy, great - get a beer. If not, try the following, making only one change at a time:
    == Turn Soft Proofing on using the profile of the paper/printer. (Don't select the profile for your monitor, or any other.) Do the screen and print match now? If so, then you know to do your adjusting with soft proofing on. Remember, soft proofing is not exact - it is merely an attempt to make your screen look like the combination of paper and printer.
    == If Soft Proofing makes your monitor look LESS like the print, then don't don't use Soft Proofing.
    == If the results are close, you can make fine adjustments using the "Printer Settings" sub menu and saving presents. For example; I use a lot of CostCo paper in my Canon Pixma Pro9000. CostCo says that their paper mimics Canon's Photo Paper Pro, so I use the settings and profile for that paper, but I tweek the cyans and reds a bit in printer settings.
    I have found that Red River profiles are a very good match for their papers.
    Hope this helps. Good luck!

  • How can I remove vertical lines when printing from Aperture 3.2.2 to Epson Stylus Photo RX690?

    I have been generally quite happy with my access to and use of Aperture 3.2.2 (recently purchased) for import and manipulation of photos and movies, etc.I am using Aperture on a MacBook Pro OSX 10.6.8.
    However I have been unable to print high quality images on Epson premium glossy, glossy or matt paper on my Epson Stylus Photo RX690.
    High quality prints on screen show perfectly in preview, but all prints come out with good and accurate colours, but a series of vertical lines or bands of lines across the photo print.
    Using the Aperture Manual I have checked my settings in Aperture for the printer, for colour and quality of paper etc and they all seem to be correct.
    The Epson Printer is networked with a Toshiba (Vista) laptop which prints perfect results from Picasa and Photoshop with fine colour and no markings.
    I would appreciate any help please.

    Cheers
