From: RDOC on 31 Oct 2009 13:15 Can anyone tell me where I can find or give me instructions on setting up the Color Settings for an Epson Stylus Photo r1900 printer in Photoshop CS4. I know all the tabs and I was figuring on letting the printer do the color management and using Adobe RGB 1998 but I don't know what particular settings to use for the printer configuration.

If you want the printer to do the color management, you don't have to set anything in Photoshop. Just set 'Printer Manages Color' in the Photoshop print dialog, and select 'AdobeRGB' as setting in the printer dialog. -- Johan W.

Are you asking how to configure the printer when you make a print? -- JD..

Hi JD I got the r1900 printer and want to set it up to print. I am lost on how to set it up. If I had a copy of the pages, in Photoshop: File/ Print and than Page Setup/the main and advance tabs I could see all the tabs and what the settings are. I tried to set it up two different ways, with Photoshop Managing the color and the other way with the printer managing the color, and I am getting bad prints or I should say they are really different than I see on the monitor. I have searched the internet and I can't find any help on the proper settings to do this so if you can help here boy I really would appreciate it! If you could give me a copy of those three pages that would be great. I have the profiles of all the Epson papers already installed and I have the Camera setup for Adobe RGB 1998.

Keep in mind I'm using CS3 and a different Epson so things may not be exactly the same. Start with Epson web page: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/index.do Get Drivers & Support, Printers. Printers, Ink Jet, find your r1900 Documents & Manuals, product documentation. User's guide, pdf. This probably came with your printer but I like to have a .pdf for quick reference. Start on page 16. On CS3, to configure my Epson, I select File, Print. On the right side of that dialog, Printer Manages Color, Printer Profile is Working RGB, Relative Colorimetric is Rendering Intent. I select my Epson printer and then Page Setup and I get my Printer Properties. There are four tabs. The Main tab is where you select the print quality, the Advanced tab is where you set the paper. For photo prints I use Epson papers. Epson keeps changing the name on my paper but I think the numbers stay the same. I proof on their inexpensive photo paper, SO41062, 100 sheets per box, and then print my final on their inexpensive thick photo paper, SO41649, 50 sheets per box. The last time I purchased paper I got it at Staples. I don't use paper profiles. Back on the Epson support page, Drivers & Downloads, Premium ICC Profiles. Am I helping or just making it worse? -- JD.. |
