photoshop printing problems - 11-06-2009, 04:46 PM


I'm having problems with printing from photoshop. Everything is muted lavender to maroon to black. Black and White, Color, Sepia tone. Its all the same.

I can print from other programs with no problems. The colors are fine.
Printing directly from the printer, Fine also. No clogged heads. Nothing skipping.

Help!

One thing that catches me every now and then is the double color management. If you are enabling Photoshop to do the color management, be sure to turn off the color management in the printer driver.
