Green cast when printing

How can I get rid of the green/yellow cast over my images in the newest Aperture 3.4.5? Photoshop CS5 prints perfectly using the same profile and settings. I have repaired the database. No effect

You marked this as solved but I'm thinking that was a mistake.
Does the image look ok when you view it in Aperture? You say when you print it from CS5 it looks OK. How do you get the image from Aperture to CS5?
You never mentioned your printer. When you print from Aperture you can have Aperture manage the color profile or the printer can manage it. Make sure only one of them is or else you will have troubles.

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.

Green Hue when Printing on Epson Stylus Pro 9600

I have an iMac
I've just upgraded to Photoshop CS5
I've downloaded the newest drivers for my Epson Printer
I've attempted to print using Adobe 1998, SRGB, and a special ICC profile made just for my printer/type of paper
Each time I print my photos have a green cast over them. Everything looks perfect on the Mac, but when it prints, everything is green. Please help

Okay so it looks like that took the green tinge off the pages and now they are just printing darker than they should, so I cleaned the nozzles, and am messing around with the settings again and hopefully this means I'm on the right track to getting perfectly colored prints again. Thank you very much. I'll call Epson from here with the fine tuning. I can't believe I missed such an easy fix. Well I thought I had it, but didn't double check that it stuck!

Green Cast in Print

I have exported an image from LR (my display is calibrated and profiled) and sent it to a lab. What came back had a green cast on part of the image (with and without optimization enabled).
I have uploaded the exported image and would appreciate if somebody with a calibrated/profiled display could have a look at it:
I can see 3 main colors in the area of the eruption:
a white center
a yellow band outside of the white
orange/red outside of the yellow band
What came back was quite green where I can see the yellow band. I can see no green at all in this image. Can anybody confirm the me, that the band outside of the white is yellow, and maybe what I should do to avoid the wrong prints?
Thanks

I softproofed your image to the profile of my local Costcos (wholesale chain all through the US) and the yellow center turns greenish upon doing that. My guess is they use similar machines to the Frontiers that costcos uses. The problem is that the yellow center is out of the gamut of such lab printers and that can result in color shifts if they color manage. If the lab you are using supplies profiles, use those to soft proof. You might also have success deleting the profile from your file. This will make their not color manage.

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.

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

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.

Red Color Cast when printing with Canon Pixma Pro 9000

My printer is giving me a horrible red color cast after the latest software update. The color cast can also be seen in Preview and in the print window. No changes to drivers have been made. Printer worked fine before the update.
Has anyone else found this problem and offered a solution?

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 ...

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?

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!

Printed photos have strong green cast

Since I upgraded to Lion all photos I print on my HP PhotoSmart 3310 have a very strong green cast, especially in the shadows.
I have tried printing directly from Aperture and also exporting the image then printing from Preview and it makes no difference. I have also reset the printing system by folowing this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1341
A test page print from my printer looks fine so I don't think it's anything to do with the hardware itself.
Any ideas why this would be happening and any suggestions for further troubleshooting?

Have you verified it's a problem with the Mac, by printing to your printer from a different machine?
Also, have you updated the drivers recently?:

Printing in green even when black chosen

Lately, when printing from Appleworks 6.9.2, the output is always light green. Selecting text and choosing black from the text colour chart does not have any effect.
What do I need to change to get back to being able to choose the colour I want for text?

AppleWorks has no control over how your printer (via its printer driver) actually treats colors. Many color printers "mix" their own black, rather than use the black ink tank (if your printer even has one). As a consequence, when one of the primary color inks gets low, the black print becomes less black.
If your printer does indeed use black ink, you might try selecting "Color Sync" from the "Copies & Pages" popup in the Print dialog. Then choose the "Black & White" Quartz Filter.

Green or blue hue when printing in Elements 11

I get a green or blue hue when printing in Elements 11. Printer color control is off. Need help to eliminate color hue when printing.

Oh yes it has Barbara. David is right. Have a look at Elements 5. I got that free and would still be using it if I hadn't had to upgraded to Windows 7. I've now had to buy Elements 11 because Elements 5 wouldn't load and Elements 11 does not have that fascility that David laments. I used that printing option almost exclusively for printing cards and I bitterly regret not having it now. I'm very disappointed with these printing options in Elements 11. The problem is that Photoshop eminates from the one country in 180 that seems manacled to its imperial measurements that the rest of the world has to keep wading through. I expect that to acquire my favourite printing fascility I shall have to get the full verson. I have seen it in screenshots, so I know that it is there. It's all very well for Barbara to say resize before entering the print window but this is just trial and error and takes forever. In the meantime I shall continue to spend ages working round this cumbersome resizing problem each time I print my cards.

Crystal report problem when printing

We have developed a crystal report that adds extra pages when i physically try to print the report.
In the viewer it does not have the extra pages, but when i print it prints a blank page after every printed page.
The conclusion of one of the support employees was that extra lines are there when printing, but not when i view it in the crystal viewer.
Version : 11.0.0.1282.
The viewer im talking about is the integrated preview of crystal reports.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Edited by: RolandWorms79 on Sep 2, 2009 10:41 PM

Like I said, let me send the report to you so you can try. I have tried everything on this green earth to get that report to print correctly. I must say im getting very unsatisfied and frustrated because everyone seems to have the solution (either upgrade x or y), but nobody is willing to look at my report and try themselves.
I have created another call for support (which is ridiculous, because its my second call) and nobody has contacted me yet.
(the support process is flawed anyway, because i cant seem to be able to register my call anywhere, i miss some number ..)
Helping is very simple. If you think its the printer driver and you have never had such a problem before, try it yourself, see what happens. I have been told to buy the new crystal, because that would solve it. it did not. Upgrade to the newest version, that would help, it didnt. try to change some settings in CR, does not help. Try a different printer, did not help.
To be honest, i have had it with try this or try that. My suggestion, try yourself. If someone had done that from the start i would have solved this problem ages ago.
I am working on this problem for about 3 months(!!!) now and i just simply need a solution.
So if anybody has a suggestion that does not include upgrade to x or y, please let me know.
