Prints have become dark with a Brown hue

I had a hard drive crash which required a new hard drive, unfortunately unconfigured. With a techie's help I am up and running but my printer, Epson SPR1900, produces very dark images with a heavy brown overcast. I have a Dell Desktop running Windows 7, Dell Monitor, ,NVIDIA GeForce 220 graphics card with a new driver update. I have calibrated the monitor with my Spyder2 and use the following settings: Under EDIT >Color Settings>Custom. Working space>ProPhoto. VIEW>Proof Setup>Device to Simulate> SPR1900 Premium Glossy. PRINT (PS-CS6) Color Management ICM>off, No Color Management.. In Color Management, Color Handling>PS Manages Color. Printer Profile>SPR1900 Premium Glossy. Rendering is Relative Colorimetric. Prints still very dark with a marked brown overtone. What have I done wrong. Prints were beautiful before the hard drive crash.

Have you checked the printer for nozzle clog?

  • Xmp files have become disassociated with image

    My xmp files have become disassociated with my image in ACR cs5. Bridge shows thumbnail and xmp file side by side for any changes i make in ACR or in rating images theough bridge.  I have searched for answers but coming up empty. Anyone?

    If you are reffering to raw files, yes, this is as expected and designed. Raw files are considered Read Only files and the variouse metadata is therefore stored in the .xmp side car files. Metadata for TIFF, PSD & JPEG as well as DNG files can be safely embedded into the file so there is no need of a side car file.
    Just be sure you keep the raw + .xmp files together and essentially treate them as one file.

  • Prints are too dark with CS4

    Hi
    I appreciate that this topic has been covered before but I cannot seem to find a resolution.
    My prints are too dark when I print from CS4 with my Epson Stylus Photo 2100 printer(2200 in the USA).
    I am using Windows Vista 32bit service pack 2.
    My monitor has been calibrated correctly (brightness lever is 117cd/m2)
    I am using genuine Epson Inks and paper (Epson premium semi gloss photo paper)
    I have the latest drivers installed.
    My workflow is Adobe RGB (1998)
    I have turned off color management in the printer and selected the correct paper type etc.
    In Photoshop I have selected Photoshop to color manage my prints and selected the correct
    Epson profile for my paper/ink.
    Black point compensation is on, and the rendering intent is relative colorimetric.
    I am sure that somehow my prints are being double profiled but I do
    not know how to prevent it.
    Has any one found a working solution to this problem/
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    I also ran Disk Utility to repair permissions. The first time through there were maybe 100 repairs made to the AirPort Utility.app. I don't even use AirPort, so I don't understand that.
    I've re-run it two more times and both times kept getting this message:

    Also, all three times I've repaired permissions it's taken over 5 minutes or more to complete. I've never had it take that long.

  • Print job becomes massive with Flash Player 10.1 & 10.2?

    First off, some info.  This is rather old code, written in 2007/2008 with Flex 2 by someone no longer with the company.  It has worked just fine for years, but not anymore.  The application aggregates pricing data over several years, and shows it in a series of 5 or so charts depending on user options.  There is a print button which takes the charts, puts them into a print template, and prints the charts (using the FlexPrintJob function) - or at least that's what it should do.
    Here's the lowdown:
    Flash Player 10.0.x and lower (down to FP 9.x), it works beautifully.
    Flash Player 10.1.x with hardware acceleration off, it works beautifully.
    Flash Player 10.1.x with hardware acceleration on, it breaks.
    Flash Player 10.2.x under any condition, it breaks.
    Now, what I mean by 'breaks' is this: when printing, it spools a 600MB+ file to the printer, gets to ~500MB (roughly the print spool limit), and prints the template with the first chart complete and the rest of the charts missing anywhere from 1/2 to all of the chart area.  If a smaller dataset is used, the charts may or may not complete, but the print job is still massive - the lowest I've seen is 350MB.  In scenarios where it works beautifully, the print job is 12MB at most.
    This slice of the application is part of an application bundle we sell as a service to clients, and forcing a FP downgrade on them is not an option.
    Has anyone run into this issue, or know where I might start to fix it?  In leui of that, any suggestions for porting a Flex 2 application to a FB4 application?
    Thanks for your time, and any help.

    The only printing example I could find in the Flex 2 docs is the very simple one here - Flex 2 Developer's Guide > Flex Programming Topics > Printing > Using the FlexPrintJob class > Example: A simple print job
    Surprisingly, even with a basic print job, the issue appears - in FP 10.2, the print job is ~13MB, in FP 10.0, the print job is ~2.3MB.
    For reference, the code used for the example (from Adobe's docs) is as follows:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
        <mx:Script>

                // Create a PrintJob instance.
                private function doPrint():void {
                    var printJob:FlexPrintJob = new FlexPrintJob();
                    // Start the print job.
                    if (printJob.start() != true) return;
                    // Add the object to print. Do not scale it.
                    printJob.addObject(myDataGrid, FlexPrintJobScaleType.NONE);
                    // Send the job to the printer.
                    printJob.send();
            ]]>

  • Reconnecting images (that have become placeholders with question marks)?

    Images in document have been replaced by placeholders with question mark. When I check project file 'Show Package Contents' i see that the missing photos are still there.
    Is there a way to re-link or re-connect the photos to their places in the document? Can't find anything in the manual. This is something that happens in many other apps. that I use, like Final Cut, but there is always an easy method of 'reconnection'.

    I have exactly the same settings on the desktop iMac as on the Macbook pro, but the problem only occurs on the macbook.

  • Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with re

    Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with reddish cast and loss of detail
    System: Windows 7
    Adobe CS5
    Printer: Epson Stylus Photo 1400
    Paper: Inkjet matte presentation paper with slight luster
    Installed latest patch for Adobe CS5
    Epson driver up to date
    After reading solutions online and trying them for my settings for 2 days I am still unable to print what I am seeing on my screen in Adobe CS5. I calibrated my monitor, but am not sure once calibration is saved if I somehow use this setting in Photoshop’s color management.
    The files I am printing are photographs of dogs with lots of detail  I digitally painted with my Wacom tablet in Photoshop CS5 and then printed with Epson Stylus 1400 on inkjet paper 20lb with slight luster.
    My Printed images lose a lot of the detail & come out way to dark with a reddish cast and loss of detail when I used these settings in the printing window:
    Color Handling: Photoshop manages color, Color management -ICM, OFF no color adjustment.
    When I change to these settings in printer window: Color Handling:  Printer manages color.  Color management- Color Controls, 1.8 Gamma and choose Epson Standard it prints lighter, but with reddish cast and very little detail and this is the best setting I have used so far.
    Based on what I have read on line, I think the issue is mainly to do with what controls are set in the Photoshop Color Settings window and the Epson Printer preferences. I have screen images attached of these windows and would appreciate knowing what you recommend I enter for each choice.
    Also I am confused as to what ICM color management system to use with this printer and CS5:
    What is the best ICM to use with PS CS5 & the Epson 1400 printer? Should I use the same ICM for both?
    Do I embed the ICM I choose into the new files I create? 
    Do I view all files in the CS5 workspace in this default ICM?
    Do I set my monitor setting to the same ICM?
    If new file opens in CS5 workspace and it has a different embedded profile than my workspace, do I convert it?
    Do I set my printer, Monitor and PS CS5 color settings to the same ICM?
    Is using the same ICM for all devices what is called a consistent workflow?
    I appreciate any and all advice that can be sent my way on this complicated issue. Thank you in advance for your time and kind help.

    It may be possible to figure out by watching a Dr.Brown video on the subject of color printing. Adobe tv
    I hope this may help...............

  • I have a Laserjet 2550L. When I try to print 2nd time get message "Waiting for printer to become ava

    Laserjet 2550L being used with Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3. After turning on, it will print once. When trying to print a second time I get a message "waiting for printer to become available." I have to turn it off and then back on to get it to print again.

    Hum. Let's uninstall with the 'scrubber option' like this:
    1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller and click Continue
    2. Highlight your device on the left pane
    3. Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
    4. There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    5. Click Continue and let it finish
    Now, run a Software Update. This can be done by clicking the Apple in the top left of the screen then clicking Software Updates.
     Next, let's reset the printing system:
    Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
    - Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Default tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
    Let me know how this works for you.

  • Prints too dark with Photoshop Elements 10

    My photos are printing out much darker than what is on the monitor display.  I have calibrated the monitor and changed the color profile, color management & color space numerous times and they I cannot see any difference in the prints. I've changed the printer settings, still too dark.  I have edited the photos and brightened them, still much darker than on the display.  I'm using Photoshop Elements 10 with a new monitor and computer.  My old computer and Adobe Photoshop CS2 program did not have this problem.  Any suggestions?

    Check to be sure that color is not managed both by PSE and by the printer. In editor, go to Edit>color settings and check "always manage color for computer screens." Then, go to File>print>more options (lower left in the dialog)>Color Management tab>Color handling: "Printer Manages Color."
    Are drivers and firmware for your printer up to date?
    Do pictures print well via other applications with your equipment?
    Have you printed a file,  processed in Elements, at a kiosk, such as at CVS? How does that look?
    I assume that you are printing from Editor, not from Organizer. It is said that the print engines are not the same.

  • Yellow ink prints with a greenish hue (sometimes streaky)

    Overall colors appear to be muted - not vibrant or vivid
    Yellow almost always prints with a greenish hue -s frequently streaky
    I have run print alignments; the appear to be ok
    I have  run the clean cartridge test; Somewhat dull looking not brilliant
    All cartridges are half full or higher
    Yellow cartidge has been replaced; no change
    This issue has been causing me the blues for a long time.  Is it the Print head assemply or some other adjustment.
    If print head(s), how does one go about changing it/them?   How much for this part?

  • My printers have become all of a sudden very slow over my network when used with my Macbook. What could this indicate ?

    My two printers on my network (HP 8500 All in one Officejet and Lexmark Pro 805)  have become very slow with processing and printing my documents. When printing, they have also made it not possible to do other applications on my Macbook until finished printing. WHat does ths point in the direction of ?

    Empty your print queue of excess print jobs that didn't go through.
    If you are within 1500 feet (500 meters) of someone who might connect wirelessly, make sure any wireless network you have is WPA2 encrypted, and not using 802.11b.  Reboot the printers, and any routers they may be connected to.

  • My address book and iPhone pics have become low resolution.  Is there a way I can prevent this from happening when I start out with a higher resolution picture?

    I guess I squeezed my entire issue into the subject line.  lol   When I sync my iphone to my laptop I notice that all my address book pics and iphone pics have become lower resolution, even though I started out with the resolution that I really needed to produce decenty address book printouts.  I doubt I can correct the losses of resolution that have occurred but can anyone help me figure out how to prevent future losses?  Thank you!

    Plugins usually are installed externally to Firefox. However, you can disable them in Firefox so that Firefox does not use them.
    SearchReset is supposed to automate the task of resetting certain preferences, but you still can edit them manually if necessary.
    '''''Address Bar Search'''''
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''keyword''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Right-click '''keyword.URL''' and choose Reset. This should restore Google as the default for address bar search.
    Does that work?
    '''''Search Box'''''
    Usually it works to choose your preferred search engine from the drop-down. To remove an unwanted search engine plugin, usually the Manage Search Engines... choice at the bottom of the drop-down takes care of it.
    Do either of those work?
    There might be another way to hijack that search box; I think some of the other frequent responders probably are more familiar with it than I am.

  • I have become unable to print from a webpage

    I have used Firefox for several years w/no major probs. Recently, however, I cannot print from a web page on my Lexmark 7675. I can print saved documents. When I click "print preview" the screen just shows up as gray all over. If I click "print", I get a message that "an unknown error occurred while printing". I can use IE 8 and it prints fine (and "print preview" shows correctly).
    What can be causing this, and what is the fix?
    Thanks.

    Same here, Windows 7 64-bit system, Firefox was at 3.6.13. Can print to the printer outside of FF with any app, not just inside FF. Also, uninstalled and reinstalled (removing all FF files in the process); tried the About:Config print.print...setting changes recommendations; tried using FF in Safe Mode as well. The about:config worked until the system was restared, then back to the same old problem. Nnothing seems to work. Ended up putting on Chrome to be able to print (didn't want to use IE). Want FF back to working! This has been a problem for the last month. Perhaps it's a Windows updated that boinked it? Oh, also updated it last night to 3.6.14 and the problem still exists.

    I have set up my airprint wifi printer which works perfectly with the HP eprint app. However, when i view an email and click on the top right arrow button and select "PRINT" on my ipad nothing happens????...
    Also, when im viewing websites and i find something i wish to print, same again, if i simply click on the print option at the top right of the screen nothing happens... the only way I can print is if i copy the weblink of the site page then click on my HP eprint app and paste the web link, then select print, it prints off fine.. but its it such a pain to keep copying and pasting links or screen dumping emails just to print...

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
