Solving Color Management Problems If you selected the wrong combination of source profile, printer profile, and color management settings, you'll get unexpected results. Try these solutions: ■ If your printed image is darker than expected, you may have turned off color management in both the application and the Epson printer driver. In Photoshop, return to the printing instructions for Windows or Mac OS X 10.8 and 10.7. Make sure the Document option is not set to Untagged RGB. Also make sure you selected the correct profile for your printer in the Profile menu. In Lightroom, make sure you selected the profile for the paper you're going to print on as the Profile setting. If you're printing with Epson Premium ICC profiles, select the profile that also matches the print quality you selected. ■ If your printed image is lighter than expected, you may have turned on color management in both Photoshop and the Epson printer driver. Make sure the Off (No Color Adjustment) Mode setting is selected in Windows or Mac OS X 10.8 and 10.7 to turn off color management in your Epson printer driver. 34 Solving Color Management Problems
