Print With Adobe Photoshop 3
Introduction
For the most precise color in your prints, you can use profiles designed specifically
for your printer model and paper type. Basic profiles are installed with your
printer driver, and you may also have downloaded Premium ICC profiles from
Epson when you installed your printer software.
To print using Premium ICC profiles with Adobe®Photoshop®CS3, CS4, or
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom®, follow the instructions in these sections for your
operating system:
■“Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP” below
■“Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.5” on page 15
■“Mac OS X 10.4.11” on page 25
Windows 7, Windows Vista, and
Windows XP
Follow the instructions in these sections:
■“Print With Adobe Photoshop” below
■“Print With Adobe Photoshop Lightroom” on page 9
Print With Adobe Photoshop
First set up your color management environment in Photoshop and assign a
profile to your image. Then select your print settings and print (the steps show
Photoshop CS4 screens).
Note:
Assigning a profile to your image doesn’t alter it, only the interpretation of it by your
software and how it appears on your monitor and in a printout. This is the best way to
improve the color balance and contrast in your image.

RGB (1998) and click OK. When your image appears, evaluate the color
balance and contrast as displayed on your monitor. If it looks incorrect, select
Edit > Assign Profile.
Print With Adobe Photoshop 5
Select one of the following as the Profile setting:
