when i try and print with an epson 3800 in cs3, using "let photoshop control the printing" the prints are too dark and i have to use the epson generic driver, no icc’s …anyone else having this problem?

i’ve taken to fixing the photo in cs3, closing it and then using cs2 to do the printing, not an ideal answer …

Hi

What do you mean "No ICCs", you don’t have them ?or CS3 is not finding them ?

Have you turned Off Colour Management in the Printer Dialogue?

1) if you use photoshop to control the printing (with no color
management by the printer) the prints are too dark
2) if you use the printer to manage the colors …you don’t have access to the icc’s for different paper

Hi.

I don’t yet have CS3, so I am not aware of any differences required in a CM Workflow for it. The workflows for CM printing have hardly changed over many versions, but CS3 might just be different.

I have had a look at Epson Australia which have a range of workflows, but they do not show any for CS3 yet.

I do hope you get to the bottom of this strangeness, and please let us know.
