Printing problems Adobe Response
« on: June 02, 2007, 01:41:37 pm »

This is the response from Adobe Lightroom Tech department.
Image was online in Lightroom.

Some recommendations were to not use the image preview function and the printer will correctly print out   (haven't tried this one yet)

Adobe (and other photographers) suggesting lowering the DPI setting down to the 200 range   (I will try next week and see if a lower setting will cure).

                                FROM LIGHTROOM TECHNICAL DEPT

Thank you for contacting Adobe® Web Support for assistance with Adobe
Photoshop Lightroom 1.0®

I understand that when you print to a print size of 24x30, nothing
prints even though you can print to 14x20 from Lightroom and print the
same image to 24x30 from Adobe Photoshop CS2®.

It is unclear what settings you are using to print. In the Library
module, is there a “?” symbol in the upper right corner of the th
umbnail? If there is, see the solutions in this support document on our
website:

If the original image is available to Lightroom, check the resolution
you are using to print with from Lightroom. In the Print module the
Print Job settings in the lower right contain the Print Resolution
setting. If this is a high number, it may be sending more data to the
printer driver than that driver can handle. Try printing at a variety of
resolution settings to see if a lower setting will work at that size.

On most printers a setting of 240 dpi will produce a good quality print,
there may be some noticeable improvement up to 300 dpi, and going above
300 dpi rarely makes a discernable difference. The
printer itself will scale the image up to a higher dpi if it prints at a
higher resolution.

It may also help to contact Epson® to see if there is a way to set the
driver to use more RAM, which could help if the driver is running out of
RAM to work with the larger image size.

I hope this information helps to resolve your issue.
If you require further assistance with this issue, please update your
web case with complete details, including what steps you have applied,
the print settings you are using and any error messages you
are receiving.
