You can use either Printer Manages Color or Application (Photoshop, etc.) Manages Color, but not both! Application Color Management gives you more control. With 'modern' printers and modern Macs ...

Hi, Glad you got it working! The 16-bit bug comes and goes! I make sure not to use it on my own printer, as I've been previously bitten by it.

May help to know which operating system you're using? Which printer driver? Especially as there are some very basic versions of printer drivers being installed.

Could be unknowingly using the Apple Airprint driver? Several recent posts on this forum about it, including an update from Gesture . Some more info here: https://www.colourphil.co.uk/printing-mac_ ...

I suggest that prospective printer buyers check with the manufacturers' sites that drivers are available for their operating system before purchase, and if not go elsewhere. If a manufacturer ...

Have you tried printing a known good 'standard' image? i.e. One that's designed for testing printers, monitors, etc. This rules out any colour or tonal issues in the image which may not be ...

Printing a 'Standard' image is a very good idea. When you use 'Soft Proofing' in C1, PS, LR, etc. you need to use your Printer/Paper ICC Profile, to show what the final print will look like. https: ...

Prints 'too dark' are normally the fault of Monitor Calibrated too bright and/or 'Soft Proofing' settings, which isn't C1's best feature! Did you calibrate your monitor to match your printer? Your ...

Possibly my server doesn't like your ISP or your OS/User Agent or your browser?

Is it possible that when you upgraded to Monterey the Apple Airprint printer driver got installed? This is a very basic driver with lots of problems. You should check that you have the correct ...

You should be very careful about buying one of these if you use a Mac, as there is no proper Canon printer driver, only the very basic Apple Airprint driver! This is according to Canon UK. So, ...

Please be aware that even when using USB or Ethernet you can still get the Airprint driver! You need to be careful when you 'Add' a new 'Printer' in the Scanners and Printers menu that you select ...

You didn't say why you wanted to use A CG display for non-photo work? I have a CG2730 and use it for everything. It can have several different monitor settings/calibrations which can be switched in ...

Glad you fixed it! No, it's not easy. Don't know why the printing application (Pshop, etc.) can't turn off CM in Win printer drivers.

Perhaps you could provide some details about which computer OS you have, and about the app you're using to print, and if you're soft-proofing, also paper, profiles, printer, ink, etc? Have you ...

Printing 'too dark' is often caused by having a monitor 'calibrated' too bright (too high luminance). https://www.colourphil.co.uk/prints-appear-dark.shtml Have you tried printing 'Standard Images' ...

It would help if we knew which OS was being used, as Mac and Win have quite different printing drivers. In Win drivers you need to turn 'Color Management (or ICM)' Off, whereas in macOS the Color ...

Printer Profiles always 'characterise' a particular printer and paper combination. Whether the profile they send it is the correct combination for you depends on those sending you the profile! ...

The Adobe Color Printing Utility is for printing Colour Profiling Targets only, i.e. not actual images, as it has no Colour Management! However, it does work with Monterey, etc. I would also be ...

On a Mac you can't (or should NOT) be able to turn off Colour Management in the printer driver. Unless you have the Bad Airprint driver! It could be the Airprint driver or it COULD be that you have ...
