Hi all,
Recently I've tried printing some pictures on my home Epson C64 with some (cheap) photo-paper. Some results are nice, others give huge differences in color.
I know I should calibrate my monitor somehow and I've used Adobe Gamma for that purpose. But when not looking into this too much I have a question probably most people will encounter sometime in photography;
How should I setup photoshop to print on my home printer? Yesterday I printed an A4-size picture which came out very nice, but there was not too much color, just a seagull on a pole in the water. The blue of the water was nice, though a little too purple. The green of the poles had almost disappeared on the print,, but further the print looked great.
In photoshop the RAW files was in Adobe 1998 color profile and I think in the print dialog I also used that profile for printing. But what should I use, color management-wise?
THNX in advance!
