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.

4Print With Adobe Photoshop

Set Up the Photoshop Environment

1. Open Photoshop.

2. Select Edit > Color Settings.

3. Select North America Prepress 2 from the Settings menu to set Adobe RGB

(1998) as the RGB working space and activate profile messages.

4. Click OK.

Follow the steps in the next section to open the photo you want to print and

assign a profile to it.

Assign a Profile to Your Photo

1. Open the photo you want to print.

2. If you see an Embedded Profile Mismatch message, select Use the

embedded profile and click OK.

If you see a Missing Profile message, select Assign working RGB: Adobe

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:

■A different RGB working space (or Profile), such as ColorMatch RGB or

sRGB IEC61966-2.1

■A scanner profile for your scanner

■A camera profile for your digital camera
