Print colours

I have a HP 1210 printer.I replaced the colour cartridge  with a cheaper brand and the printed colours became washed out and the picture which should have been green looked more brownish. I changed the cartridge back  to the original and cleaned the heads twice but cannot get the original bright green colours to print. Any ideas?

Having another go at this one but sadly making no progress.   Because some of my terminology is non standard I will try to repeat what I am doing to match your words.
Have pasted your text onto a text edit page and that (in the form of a text clipping) has found its way into FINDER.
Just to recap the procedure, I am working directly from the communities page with your instructions.
... I go to Safari > preferences > advanced.
... after selecting 'other' the screen switches immediately and superimposes the FINDER screen over the community page.   There, it is the only file greyed out and FINDER offers but one option ... cancel.
... I can find no way to type the ASC.CSS in the box where 'other' was written  as per your picture in your post before last; it's all covered by the FINDER screen anyway.
Clearly I am taking a wrong turning somewhere .... but where.    So please don't feel embarrassed if we can go no further.   You've done such a lot already and I'll go back to this from time to time to try and crack it.

  • Configure printer colour setting as grayscale

    How to configure the Printer colour setting to grayscale as default option in workgroup manager, i am pushing printer drivers for client using workgroup manager but cant set the colour option                                                                     

    It really depends on the printer and the application used and the operating system.   You might want to save some default layout configurations in the Page Setup and ask your users to use them when going grayscale.  But since not all printer drivers behave the same way, and not all applications offer Page Setup, that advice is only partially true.

  • Newbie PDF screen display/print colour problem

    First let me say I've been searching through the forums for an answer for my problem and drawn a blank, mostly I suspect because I'm not exactly sure what the problem is.  Also I understand the basics of colour profiles but a large proportion of it goes over my head.
    The problem:
    Our key "corporate" colour is C0 M100 Y75 K25 - I can get reliable and pretty consistent print colour that I am happy with, across a range of devices from documents I produce in Indesign
    For screen output e.g. our website, taking an average of several different devices and monitors (none with any kind of calibration i.e. an average user) this equates to approx R130 G11 B34
    I am producing a number of PDF 'factsheets' that will be downloadable from the website and I anticipate that some people will just view these 'on screen' and some will print out for reference.
    The problem is C0 M100 Y75 K25 and R130 G11 B34 look radically different when viewed on screen or printed - I almost need a PDF 'screen' profile and print profile within the same document. I know I can get a match on my screen if I calibrate it, but I need it to look more or less correct for anybody who views the PDF.
    I hope I've explained this clearly enough and any help or direction anyone can give would be really appreciated!
    Thanks in advance

    Ahhhh...I see what you are saying now Rob.  Unfortunately the docs don't soft proof correctly on my display either - take on board that my display is not calibrated and also I would think 99.9% of the target audience for the PDF won't have a calibrated display either - so I am after a solution that falls to the lowest common denominator.
    However, if my understanding of what you are saying is correct, if I had a profile that I could use on my uncalibrated monitor that soft-proofs correctly (more or less - I'm not going for absolute accuracy, just somewhere in the right ballpark), then using the PDF/X4 preset with that profile set would mean others opening the PDF on similarly uncalibrated monitors would also see the more or less correct colours?
    Would that profile not throw the colours out on the print if that end user then decided to print it out?
    Again, apologies for the simple nature of the questions, but I've only been using InDesign for about 8 months and so far I've lived with the colours appearing wrong on screen as I've known they come out how I expect at print time.  This is the first thing I've done where I would like it to look more-or-less correct on screen as well as in print.
    Thanks for taking the time to reply, I really do appreciate it

  • Switch off printer colour management

    Hello,
    I am on a Mac Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and using IDCS5 to print to a Canon Pro 9500 printer.
    When I get to the print dialog, I can only select colour handling by indesign. There is no option for colour managed by printer which is fine because I would prefer to have indesign manage the colours.
    However when I go to printer settings dialog I cannot turn off the printer colour management. There are two radio buttons only in the colour matching section. One is canon colour matching and the other is Coloursync from which I can select from various colour profiles.
    I can't figure out how to disable colour mangement from the printer driver.
    Can someone help me with this please?
    Jach

    I can see what you are saying about objects with different profiles in one indesign document. But the output has to be just one profile - in my case my custom built profile for the type of paper and my inkjet printer.
    So if my understanding is right - Indesign takes the number colours from the various objects in the document and convert them to numbers that my printer will use for a particular type of paper. To do this conversion indesign needs a recipe, and that recipe is in the form of my custum built profile.
    However, what is happening so far, is that indesign is converting the colours using my profile but then the printer driver is also doing some form of conversion which is messing up the colours.
    What I did try is select the right profile in the indesign print dialogue and then went to printer settings and chose colour sync and the same profile from the drop down list. I was hoping that selecting the same profile in both indesign and printer driver would result in preventing double profiling. However the results were bad.
    I am not sure how choosing DocumentRGB is going to help. Because my colour setting across the adobe suite is ProPhoto RGB for the RGB settings.
    If I go to the drop down menu for printer profile, one of the options I get is "DocumentRGB - ProPhotoRGB". Wouldn't this be wrong if some of the images in my document are sRGB or some other colour space?

  • Disable printer colour management

    Hi   
       I have just bought the above printer to replace a very simple Canon pixma.  I use Windows Live editing and Photoshop Elements too.   To get the results required its suggested by Photoshop that the printer colour management is disabled to use Photoshops.This didnt seem to be possible with  Pixma.     But expected a better printer to have this function
    However Iaam getting the same warning box.  Printing to non interpolative (spelling?) printer. The images iaren't printing asthey were when they left photoshop.
    Can I do this with this machine or have I made a mistak in buying this machine. Its options seem limited for a  machine worth around 60.00

    Hello @Jenny105,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I would like to assist you today with resolving the Photoshop Elements error that you're receiving when printing from your Windows 7 computer to your HP Envy 4500 All-in-One. I did some research into this error and found that the message "Printing to non interpolated printer" is a postscript error. This indicates that rather than just a colour issue, you have a settings issue under Photoshop.  Apparently this message is just informing you that you have Postscript settings and you are using a non Postscript printer. Postscript is a printer language. Consumer printers, like your HP Envy, are only PCL 3 for their printing language capabilities. If you need to use Postscript settings (such as halftone patterns, transfer curves, interpolation . . .) than you will need a Postscript capable printer, like a Laserjet, or commerical Inkjet. Also, because you're finding that the colours aren't printing correctly, you may need to adjust the colour profile information under Photoshop.
    For instructions on how to adjust the colour profile settings, please click here. You can choose to either 'let Photoshop determine printed colours' or 'Let printer determine printed colours'.
    Once you have adjusted the colour profile settings, please test printing again.
    Please let me know if the colour profile adjustment resolves your issues. Best of luck!

  • Disabling printer colour management

    Hi,
    my prints are coming out very dark on my Epson 4400 from photshop CS6 on my Mac OS X10.8.5
    In the print window it says to disable the printer colour management from the print settings dialogue box but I can't find this anywhere. I have seleceted Photoshop to manage the colours.
    Any advice much needed!

    It should be in your main Print window...Print > Color Handling.  I have mine set for "Let Printer Manage Colors" because the Epson driver has a lot of options I want to take advantage of and is engineered to interpret application color settings accurately.

  • PSE6 Mac Printing Colours darker than PSE4 - Adobe accepts problem  !Help!

    *PSE6 Mac Printing Colours darker than PSE4 - Adobe accepts fault*
    My work requires that when I create prints for artists I must replicate all the prints exactly everytime. It worked perfectly from PSE2, PSE3 and PSE4 but now......
    I am unable to replicate quality of printing on MACOSX PSE6. it works great on PSE4. I mailed some printed images on art paper to adobe in amsterdam and a cd with the same images. After weeks of discussions phone, email and after testing using their work flow....they came back with some answers.
    Finally a couple of replies from Adobe re colour problems and they have accepted that they are double managing the image and that I should use printer management to do the colour conversion.. here are their two replies and the comment that they will now drop me until??????? 


    Answer #1 

Your Customer Service Number is: 129800224 

Thank you for contacting Adobe Technical Support. 

After consulting with my colleagues about the issue you raised, I can let you know the following: 

The issue is both on our as well as the driver software side and the workaround we have given is the best available at this time. This issue is affecting all printers, not just Epson or Canon. 

The soft proofing effect that you are seeing in the print preview is indeed an attempt at soft proofing. However since Photoshop Elements managed prints are incorrectly double colour managed it is not as useful as it was initially designed. 

As to the exact details of why this occurred, we have no official information. 

We believe that this will resolve the issues you are experiencing, however, should the reply not help solve the problem, please contact us again, quoting the case number given above, and we will re-open the case.
    

Answer # 2 
Subject: Re: Adobe TS #180107025 / Mario / PSE6 oversaturated Print (KMM3793441I51L0KM) 

Dear Mr. Laugesen, 

We have had word back from our engineers regarding your issue. 

The Photoshop Elements team are aware of the problem and are working with Apple and the printer manufacturers to get this to work correctly. In the meantime, the only workaround is to switch off colour management in Photoshop Elements and let the printer handle the colour management. 

Unfortunately we can not make an estimation as to when a fix will be provided. We will close the case for the time being as there really is nothing more we can do about this issue besides offering the suggested workaround. Closing this case does not mean that the research will stop however and the engineers are working on a solution to this.

    finally fixed With PSE9

  • Setting to enable Pixma MP560 to print colour text?

         Hi!
         Hope I am in the appropriate section for this problem. I am unable to get my Pixma MP560 to print colour text. Ink levels fine. Is there a setting for this when I click print?
         Regards,
         DG.

    It has to be something in Page Setup.
    Or when the print dialog box comes up there must be a Printer properties dialog button. Open that and make sure it is set to print in color.
    In the System Preferences Printer & Scan is there any settings for the printer.
    As usual working with a Windows PC seem much easier.
    EDIT:
    When you go to Print in the print dialog window is there a Presets section? If there is for your printer click on that and at the bottom there should be "Show Presets..
    Open that  and select a color preset or some that doesn't say B&W.

  • Officejet Pro 8500 printed colours not true colours

    All of a sudden my printed documents are printing using the incorrect colours - photos are 'greyish' (with muted colours); reds print as browny, etc.  We always use genuine HP inks and documents previously printed fine from a colour perspective.  When I 'align' the printheads, the page that prints out show black, blue and pink are fine but the red and green look all wrong.  All inks are in place and none are low.

    Hello Algonquin28,

  • How to turn off printer colour management in LR 5.7?

    Using an EPSON R3000 with bespoke profiles and getting a magenta colour cast. It seems there is some double profiling/ conflict at work. I don't seem to have an option to turn off colour management  - like this:
             For my system, the colour matching is greyed out and I can't change anything. When it's greyed out, does it mean it's automatically turned off?
    Does anyone else have this issue? Everything works wonderfully in CS6, no issues printing with ICC profiles from there. Using MacOSX 10.8.
    Thanks!

    The behavior in screen capture two with the two radio buttons grayed out is correct. You cannot turn off color management anyway. The magenta cast is another problem.

  • Why is my printer NOT printing colour from my new mac?

    I downloaded the HP driver, but it didn't seem to do anything.
    The test page printed in colour, but no document will print in colour and I don't see an option in settings to print in colour.
    And yes it is a newish cartridge, so there is ink in it.
    My old mac didn't seem to have a problem with this.
    How do I print in colour from my new mac?

    Have you installed the driver from the link I posted? Have you set up the printer from System Preferences>Print & Scan selecting your printer? There is a symbol next to your printer which would indicate not.
    You do not indicate what OS is running on your MBP.

  • Printer colour does not match screen colour in Adobe 9, but does with Adobe 7

    I have just upgraded to Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.  My colour documents look
    different when printed from 9 than when they do printed from 7 even when the same document is printed on the same printer from the same computer.  What settings do I need to change in 9 so that the documents print out the same?  For example, in one document I have dark blue sky which is fine in 7, but prints out as deep purple sky in 9.  On screen it is dark blue when viewed in both 9 and 7.  All help greatly appreciated.  Thanks

    The same document prints our perfectly from Adobe 9 on another colour printer so the problem is obviously between Adobe 9 and the original printer.  The original printer is due to be replaced shortly so we will not try to resolve this issue.  Thanks for your help.

  • Printed colour is different between two elements both created in pages with the same colour

    Hi There,
    I have been having some issues getting a text colour to match a logo (imported in pdf format) - While trying to discover what was happening I created a sample colour of (HSB 189 / 89 / 73) in pages and saved it in my colours palette to test.
    Now if I create some text (in pages) and a shape (also in pages) and colour them from the same colour sample/swatch and print it - the colours are clearly very different, Does pages do some kind of text colour correcting or weirdness that I cant find? Its hard to believe this is the desired workflow and its very anoying.
    PS. I have also tried printing from a pdf and I have the same issues - That said the two colours look identical in pages and the pdf on screen.
    I'd be extremely grateful for any help
    NB I have since read
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/9263007#9263007
    Which although is helpful and may explain the behavious of the imported logo pdf vs the text it doesn't (I dont think) explain how two elements both created in pages using the same colour (from pages) would be dfferent?

    They are both coming out at the exact same colour (CMYK 83, 0, 21, 0) which is correct however they are not the same colours when printed, Im begining to think this is less of a pages thing (as the output is correct) but something is going wrong between pdf/pages and print
    Its not the easiest thing to see so you may have to take my word for it - but the two colours are not the same by quite a long way (Theres way more contrast in real life)
    I think Im ready to admit defeat on this but thanks a bunch for your help!
