The war with Epson R800-printer vc monitor
Posted: Tue Mar 01, 2005 11:09 pm
After calibrating printer ( Epson R800) with EyeOnePro (GretagMacbeth) and calibrating display (Apple Cinema HD 30") with the same device i have such a situation:
after printing from Photoshop my prints look exactly the same as they look in SOFT PROOF mode of PS. But they look very different from normal mode in PS. The colors are more "cool", the saturation is much less etc. etc.
As I understand the calibrated monitor shows "real" colors and calibrated printer prints "real" colors, so why these colors are different? At first I thought, that, may be, gamut of monitor is much more wide, than gamut of printer, but "gamut warning"-mode shows nothing. The light conditions have nothig to do with this, becouse, as I've tould, "soft proof" coincides with print.
So, WHAT SHOULD I DO TO HAVE PRINTS LOOK LIKE THAY ARE ON MONITOR? NOT ONLY IN SOFT PROOF MODE!!!
P.S. Sorry for bad english
