I use Photoshop CS and and an Epson Photo 2200. I find I have to make small test prints to make sure my prints are going to come out right. Most of the time they don’t look enough like they do on the monitor to satisfy me, and I waste too much paper and ink on testing. If anyone has any tips on monitor to print calibration, I would appreciate it. More specifically I need to know some things about icc profiles and printer settings. For one, if an image from a cd has an embedded profile should I use it and change my printer profile to match? Or should I change the embedded profile to match the one I usually use? Or, do the two not have to match at all? Maybe I should leave the embedded and use the one I usually use in my printer settings? Which, of course, brings up another question. Is it better to use the profile provided by the paper company? One that is,( I call them universal), such as adobe RGB, or one that I created with my calibration device. Which is a Spyder, by the way.
I know this is long, but there are just so many questions. Thanks to all who reply. DNT
