I used the Monaco EZ color w/ Optix to calibrate both my LCD and CRT and my Epson 2200 printer. I have a photo that is driving me nuts. It’s a great photo of the "Grand" in the Grand Tetons. The mountain has it’s top sticking into some big fluffy clouds and a sparkling stream is in the foreground on it’s way to the base of the distant mountain. It looks great on my screens but when I print it, a large stand of deep dark green trees print a drab dark brown, not deep green like the CRT.
I have spent weeks and a lot of paper and ink attempting to adjust my printer profile to make the print look like the CRT to no avail. I downloaded a profile from Red River that was made for my printer. This profile was a disaster, giving the picture a purple cast.
I could cheat and use the color replace tool to change the dark green to a lighter green and hope that prints more like what I want. I would rather make a global change to my printer profile so it matches my screens. The rest of the picture looks great! It’s just this one dark shade of green that is giving me a fit.
Thank you for any suggestions.
