I have been trying to create printer profiles for my Epson 3880 but I end up with weird colors. I am running OS X Lion 10.7.2 and my printer driver is version 8.64, the latest from Epson.
I am using a rented ColorMunki Photo, but after I generated the first profile, the prints had poor color - definitely not calibrated!
I got really frustrated burning through ink and good paper, and I didn't want to mess with that anymore, so I will just use Eric Chan's service.
So, I am trying to print Eric Chan's targets with Adobe Color Printing Utility v1.0, following the instructions on
http://people.csail.mit.edu/ericchan/photos/rgb_profile_instructions.htmlEverything I have ever read says to disable all color management. Yet this is not an option! See the first attached screen shot, which has forced me to accept ColorSync (and without telling me what profile I am being forced into).
The second screen shot shows the options for Print Settings. Here Color Settings are forced to be Off.
The final screen shot shows that Epson Drive Color Management is Off.
Why is ACPU forcing me into an undisclosed ColorSync profile? I don't want to print the targets, pay $30 and get another bad profile because my settings were off.
Please help.
