Colour reproduced from my photosmart c4680 are way off

I am trying to get good colour reproduction of water colour paintings to use as greetings cards. I am using a Advent 9617 laptop running Windows Vista home premium & an HP photosmart all-in-one C4680 but the finish prints are nothing like the laptop screen colours. Do I need to buy a calibrating  system?

First off make sure GPS is indeed turned on. From the Location Services app, click the drop down menu at the top left, click Locate me using, make sure there is a check mark on GPS. Otherwise its not using GPS to locate you but rather your cell signal.
Second, if your sitting "at home" Gps needs a clear view of the sky, this applies to phones, standalone GPS, etc. If your inside you will not get an accurate reading.

  • Greens from my Nikon D800 are way over saturated and too bluish  14 bit NEF

    Greens from my Nikon D800 are way over saturated and too bluish 14 bit NEF uncompressed files. I have no problem with raw files from other cameras is there a setting I am missing somewhere?

    Hi,
    I have been shooting my D800 for over a year now, and I have not observed what you are discussing, particularly in outdoor, natural light situations.
    I have downloaded your NEF, and imported it into Aperture (3.4.5).  I notice two things right away:  1) you are using Uncompressed NEF, 14 bit recording;  and 2) you seem to have a custom White Balance.  The former should be of no matter, but would be interested if you have been able to discern any advantage over Lossless Compression, 14 bit?
    However, the important concern is with the Custom White Balance impact on the rendering of NEFs in RAW in Aperture.  I am planning to do a study of this, and am wondering if you could test your resutls in similar shots with Auto White Balance rather than any preset (yours or the camera standard presets)?
    I by practice only shoot Auto White Balance (and RAW), but recently I have found benefit to using a preset WB when shooting video since that result will not be modifiable later on the computer.  After doing this, I have sometimes forgotten to reset the WB to Auto before again shooting stills in RAW, and the resulting difference vs once reset has been curious.
    While it is well known that Picture Controls when used and shooting RAW will likely result in wide differences between the Camera Preview and Aperture's first rendering, I am less certain what the dynamics of White Balance settings and first rendering in Aperture.
    Thanks for the test image and chance to discuss this.

  • Print Colours is all Programs on My MacBook Pro are Way Off

    I'm having colour issues with printing in all programs.
      The colours are muted and dark. Eg. Royal Blue becomes a Denim Blue. A bright pinkbecome a dusty rose. Reds are orange. Lime Green becomes Forest Green.
      I have an HP 7500A printer. I experinced this difficulty with my old printer when I first got my Mac the printer was blamed and as it was 10 years old and dying I accepted that. Now my brand new printer has the same issue.
       I've change the printer profiles in Pages and General CKMY is closest to true it reduces the muting but the colours are still dark and the shades are off. It slows the printer big time. Automatic or Vendor is awful the colours are so far off. RGB is way off as well.
       The issue is worse on my own Mac specific creations but is persistant through out all programs iPhoto, Pages, Safari, Adobe Elements 9, Mail etc.
      I've been working with HP and they can't figure it out. They have sent me a new print head and are sending me another one. Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer software.
       I've quereyed help and looked through system settings etc and can't see where to fix or change the colour settings with in the Mac itself.
      Can anyone out there shed some light on this.
    Pantheria
    P.S. I posted this in the iPhoto forum by mistake. Since then I checked out ColourSync and I get no profiles for anything except the calculater. Nothing for the Displays, Devices, Systems etc.
    MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8), Snow Leopard

    My apologies.  Click on Display.  The next window will bring up the Colors button as well as the Calibrate button.

  • Photosmart 8250 colors are way off

    Photosmart 8250 has been a great printer for several years. (out of warranty now of course) I haven't had any paper or photo, 4x6, feeding problems at all, and have only had one paper jam. Lately the color printing has gone bad. I use only HP inks, never have used a "refill" in the printer. Lately I saw an error on the printers screen, it was about the paper sensor being faulty. I only saw this once. There also has been a small red blotch on the bottom edge of some of the prints, this is new, so I am pretty sure I need this printer serviced. It still looks new and has been without all of the other issues I read about I would rather have this one fixed rather than an exchange.
    The paper sensor supposedly senses the type of paper and sets the printing parameters accordingly as I understand this so far. I have never taken this printer apart, but I have done so on other printers. Has anyone replaced a paper sensor in a printer such as this? Maybe its not a big deal, but then again, maybe its better that a tech that does it all of the time should do it?
    Today is Sunday after Christmas, i will call HP support, this week but any advice in the meantime.  
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The paper sensor is used when the paper type is set to "Automatic", you can override this by setting the paper type manually in the driver.

  • Epson PictureMate and LR - colors are way off

    Have the original 'toaster' PictureMate on Vista. The drivers are built-in and Epson's site doesn't have Vista-centric drivers for it, so I am good there I guess.
    In the LR Print module I am able to choose the printer and adjust the properties of the printer through the printer driver/windows dialog boxes but cannot see where to turn off color-management. Leaving LR with 'let printer manage colors' just gives me muted, gray colors.
    If I use LR to choose a profile just brings up an empty dialog box... so obviously there are not any profiles loaded with the driver?
    Looked online for Profiles and couldn't find any.
    Does anyone have any idea on how to disable printer managed colors OR how to get a profile for the PictureMate series?
    Resorted to exporting and printing from Windows Photo Gallery which works, but extra steps...

    Have you removed the print cartridges and cleaned the contacts both on the catridges and were they sit i the printer with a lint free cloth and some bottled water? If you have and that does not help the issue it would be time to upgrade that printer.

  • Massive Issue: "Audio Glitching" on footage from FS700. Sync is way off, but the footage is in fine when viewed in VLC.

    This is a sort of difficult issue to describe because I've never encountered anything like it in any editing program before.
    I'm attempting to cut some interview footage, but it's impossible because the audio seems to be cutting in and out and doesn't match the video at all. It was shot on a Sony FS700, and I can watch the footage in VLC and it plays back and the sync is fine. When I try to import the footage into Premiere the wave form seems to only go for about half the length of the interview and seems to be cutting out chunks of the sound. The footage is nearly double the length of the audio, so the second half of the footage is just silence. It's not a frame rate issue, because the sync doesn't gradually drift. It's a drastic difference between the video and waveforms. I've tried importing through windows and through media browser and still no luck. I've also cleared the media cache and that made no difference. This is extremely frustrating because I the footage plays back fine outside of Premiere and I've been using my Sony FS700 with Premiere for the past few years with no issues like this. I just updated to 2014.1 and I'm guessing that's part of the problem unfortunately. Oddly enough, the same project contains footage from a GH4 and AF100 with no audio issues.
    My specs are as follows:
    Windows 8.1 (Up to Date as 11/1/14)
    Adobe Premiere CC 2014.1 (Up to Date as of 11/1/14)
    Intel i7-3820
    Nvidia GTX 670 (344.48 Driver)
    32GB RAM
    I don't have a screen casting program, but I could record some footage of the issue if my description isn't cutting it.

    I was able to get the footage to play correctly, but only if I work with the footage directly off the SD card. The issue seems to arise when I import the footage that's been transferred to my hard drive.

  • HT204370 the audio and video are way off on my movie

    I purchased a movie in HD on my ipad, trying to watch it on my laptop and the video & audio are not synched.  how can I fix this?

    Does it play ok on your iPad ? If it does then delete it from your laptop and copy it back across again.
    If not, then depending upon what country that you are in (films can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the film from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes (or delete it from your iPad and redownload it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it, then delete it from your computer's iTunes and copy it across.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download film or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • My GPS Coordinates are way off!

    I life in the Northwest Arkansas area, however, my Palm Pre's gps has a habit of saying my current location is in Dallas, TX when I'm sitting at home? What's going on with this? I'm paying for an application that shows me my phone's current location from a website (in the event my phone is lost or stolen) however, it's no good if my phone is telling the application the wrong coordinates. I know it's not the application causing this because I looked on Google Maps, it said the exact same thing, that my location is in Dallas, TX. This happens periodically throughout the day. At times it will give the correct coordinates, then other times, I'm supposively in Dallas! What's going on here?

    First off make sure GPS is indeed turned on. From the Location Services app, click the drop down menu at the top left, click Locate me using, make sure there is a check mark on GPS. Otherwise its not using GPS to locate you but rather your cell signal.

  • HT2375 Using logic 9: play back of all project files now has problems:  Track volumes are way off - if panning is set to center then you cant hear that track? Even if pan is adjusted tracks are low and or distorted I have looked at core/built in audio

    Been having project play back problems for about a month.  Sometimes when I open a project the volume of certain tracks is low and or distorted.  Oddly if a midi track is panned to the center (0) its volume is too low and if I pan right or left the track becomes louder.  Sometimes this doesn't help and if it is an audio track things become distorted. 
    Although things have been working good for about a year now I think it has something to do with the fact that I have to take the laptop to work and use headphones/built in audio for play back and then take it home and use different audio interface but I can't be sure.  The settings in preferences/audio/devises seem to be correct.
    I have not added any plug-ins recently.  I have not downloaded any new programs recently other than a NI tutorial video (shouldn't have any affect) but I am trying to use a new midi controller but again that shouldn't have any affect on play back of existing track?
    Any suggestions?

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio. 

  • Time restriction settings are way off

    I have an AE running 6.1 on Lion, all software updated. I set time restrictions by mac address on my iMac using the Airport utility for all my kids' devices. But, for some reason the shutoff time always seems to be off at least an hour. For example, I have my daughter's iPod Toch set to go off the net at 9:00 pm, but at 8:00 pm it shuts off. Her iPod and my AE are both set to CST.
    Thoughts?

  • Page Tiling is Way Off -- fixable?

    I'm running Illustrator CS3 (13.0.2) under an evaluation copy of Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit (build 7100) and the page tiling for my Photosmart printer is way off and mighty peculiar to boot. A "new" file may show the correct margins, but once I've gone into "print," and back to the file, the tiling shows 1/4" all around, as for the Laserjet (which is the default printer). Or the tiling lines may appear well outside of the page outline -- and double, with one set about 3/8" larger all around. A file I keep as a template for a plain 8 1/2x11" portrait layout opens with the tiling lines in the right place, but also changes as above once I've gone into "print" and come back to the file. The print preview shows 1/4" margins all around, and prints to that size, meaning anything laid out (lain out?) to the page tiling is off the 1/2" margin of the Photosmart. A similar "template" file for landscape does the same. (Landscape page tiling has always been wonky -- that is unchanged or maybe worse, with tiling lines for both layouts, doubled, etc.)
    This is some kind of a system problem, not an Illustrator or perhaps even an Adobe software problem (it's the same in Photoshop though I don't often print from PS so it's not bothersome there), but I thought someone here might have had the same problem or one like it.
    I 'm using the latest printer driver -- insofar as there is a "latest:" for Vista 65bit--, but HP didn't much want to install it to Win7 -- it did install when I chose the  "install with recommended settings" button.
    Any input will be appreciated. (Except don't tell me to get CS4, I tried for a month to get the copy I bought to install and spent days' worth of phone hours to accomplish nothing, finally got some of my money back and decided to wait for CS5 or until I find non-Adobe programs to do some or all of the jobs... whichever comes first...)
    TIA

    <Have you considered creating a user-defined default document profile for the printer in teh printers control panel?
    That doesn't seem to be an option with this printer, at least not anywhere I can find.
    <Sounds like the print engine is querying those values and the system simply returns >>>what it thinks<<< are correct settings based on your printer default.
    But the printer default (letter, document, meaning with the normal printer margin of .25" top and sides, about .4" on the bottom) should return the correct margins, shouldn't it? (.25" all around is the default for the Laserjet, but it makes no difference whether the default printer is the Photosmart or the Laserjet)
    <Also check, which printer language it's using. It often makes a huge difference of PS vs. PCL. vs. WinPrint (GDI+).
    <Far as I remember it's PCL like all the other HP printers we've had  --can't find that in the properties tabs either and put the manuals somewhere where I knew I could always find them... (bet I can download them)
    Illustrator has never liked that printer much -- CS2 crashed if I changed the settings (which was nearly always necessary) from its printer setup function. And CS3 still gets absolutely crazy with page tiling if I change the page setting from portrait to landscape. I don't remember if PS has the same troubles.
    <If all else fails, an alternative may be to save as PDF and print from Acrobat. It has a much better handle on such things. AI is really quite limited in that regard...
    What I did, and should have thought of first thing!  was put a guide on the lower page tiling line of the template file (for printing custom-sized labels and sets of photos, has centers and cut lines marked) as soon as I had the template file  on the screen. The tiling lines are correct to the printable area of the Photosmart until the print function is evoked.  Then when I'm designing and spacing labels etc., I'll know where the lower boundary is.
    Saving as a PDF isn't very practical for this stuff as my husband is of the nibbled to death by ducks, or millimetres, school of design and will have me making mm adjustments for hours on a label which to be stuck on a hard hat (and thus wrinkled and distorted, as a rule). Every time he needs a new set or a reprinting of an existing badge. (Hmmm... if I PDFed the file and told him it was unchangeable...)

  • Lightroom 2 & 3 Beta color, contrast WAY off on display 2

    Lightroom 3 Beta 2  /  Windows 7  64bit  /  Dual calibrated displays
    Display 1 connections are HDMI out to digital in, display 2 is digital out to digital in.
    PROBLEM
    In both the Lightroom 3 Beta 2, and Lightroom 2 v2.6 632038, color, contrast and so on are WAY off on my number 2 monitor. If I drag a Photoshop CS4 window from the left display to the right display I see no difference, looks fine. This is also true with Picasa 3, and iMatch Digital Image Management software and preview images in Picasa photo viewer. The issue seems to be just with Lightroom.
    I don't see any settings for adjustment of the Lightroom right hand screen in either version - Help appreciated, IM

    If you want to, you could zero out all the settings and then save this as a preset and then automatically that preset to all imported images. Not really sure why you would want to do this though. All your images look pretty flat. The default settings do a fair job of approximating what you see on the back of you camera when you made the shot and give you a good place to start. I tried zeroing things out for a while, and then found out I was bringing every image pretty much back to the defaults, and so stopped doing that.

  • Explain plan cardinallity is way off compared to actual rows being returned

    Database version 11.2.0.3
    We have a small but rapidly growing datawarehouse which has OBIEE as its front end reporting tool. Our DBA has set up a automatic stats gathering method in OEM and we can see that it run and gathers stats on stale objects on a regular basis. So we know the statistics are upto date.
    In checking some slow queries I can see that the cardinality being reported in explain plans is way off compared to what is actually being returned.
    For example the actual number of rows returned are 8000 but the cardinality estimate is > 300,000.
    Now as per an Oracle White paper(The Oracle Optimizer Explain the Explain Plan) having "multiple single column predicates on a single table" can affect cardinality estimates and in case of our query that is true. Here is the "WHERE Clause section" of the query

    Edited by: qqq on Apr 7, 2013 2:27 PM

    As already asked in your other thread:
    Please see the FAQ for how to post a tuning request and the information that you need to provide.
    Part of that information is:
    1. DDL for the table and indexes
    2. The query being used
    3. row counts for the table and for the predicates used in the query
    4. info about stats. You did update the table and index stats didn't you?
    5. The 'actual' execution plans.
    An explain plan just shows what Oracle 'thinks' it is going to do. The actual plans show what Oracle actually 'did' do. Just because Oracle expected to save doesn't mean the savings were actually achieved.
    When you post the plans use on the line before and on the line after to preserve formatting.
    Your partial code is virtually unusable because of the missing conditions in the predicates. You need to use '!=' for 'not equals' if that's what those missing conditions are.
    Please edit your post to use code tags, add the missing conditions and provide the other information needed for a tuning request.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

  • Lightroom printing - colors way off

    I searched through this forum for a known problem, but I'm at a loss...
    My configuration :
    Lightroom 2.0
    Vista 32 bit
    Epson R1800, using glossy paper
    Downloaded the most recent drivers and profiles from Epson site.
    In the printer properties, I switch ICM off, choosing color mode "Epson vivid" (or even tried "Epson standard", in LR I select the profile "SPR1800 PrmGls Photo" (there seems to be no profile for glossy paper and 'Best photo'.
    Rendering intent : perceptual
    Sharpening : standard.
    So when I print, the colors are way off, photo is too light overall.
    But when I try to turn it down in the develop module and print, colors are still way off.
    Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong / forgetting / ... ?
    Thanks,
    Phaedra

    From your description of the problem it appears that you are confusing the R1800 and LR settings. In the print module on the bottom of the left panel is a button for printer setup (or some such words - I am working from memory). Click the button to set the printer. You should choose glossy as the paper type and best photo as the print option in the Epson dialog box. This is not a print profile. Also, make sure that ICM is off and no printer management is selected. That sets the printer.
    Back in LR on the right panel near the bottom you should select your print profile which you apparently have installed. If it says "managed by printer" change the setting to the appropriate profile, in your case the SPR1800 PrmGls Photo profile. It should be the icc or icm profile (can't remember which) so check this also.
    This should work.
