LR4.1 Printing with magenta cast?

Aug 1, 2012 7:41 PM

Tags: #cast #printing #lr4 #magenta

Hello Adobe

I have just moved to LR4.1 from a bridge/PS6 workflow. I am having issues with the prints having a magenta cast. I have a colour managed workflow (Eizo ColourEdge monitor, Datacolour calibration, Epsom R3000 using paper manufacturers icc profiles). The magenta cast is happening when printing through LR4 using the papers icc profile. Same file is fine when printed with the same profile through CS6.

 

I can see some questions with the same issue but cannot see a resolution that is applicable. Is it you or me? Help please

    Often a magenta cast points to double color management. Check that the driver is set such that it isn’t applying a profile there and in LR’s print module. For Epson, No color adjustment needs to be selected. And if you setup the printer settings in LR’s print module, you do not want to use a printer preset, it should always be set to Default Settings (top option in the popup menu). Unlike Photoshop and other applications, the print settings are saved with the template so you can’t use one of the presets you may have built elsewhere within the driver itself.

    Many thanks. Problem solved- instead of "No colour Adjustment" the setting was "sRGB". All good now
