I am new to this; digital photography, CS6 and this forum. So please excuse my clumsiness. Somewhere there is a list of all the information I should post with my question. I do not know how to access this list. So, this is my first inquiry. How do I become more fluent in this forum?
I have been struggling for over a year trying to get my prints to look anything like what I see on my screen.
Adobe phone help was entirely useless. Epson has been patient but not necesarily helpful. Today, in my tenth phone session with them, we may have stumbled upon something. Rep had me print my test print in Photoshop. Awful, as usual. Then he had me print the same print in Preview. Much closer (tho not perfect) to the true color. He said the problem is with Photoshop.
I am too new at this to guess at his accuracy. But the printing through Preview was an eye-opener. The printer can print somewhat accurate to screen version.
Please tell me what info is needed to post an informative question and where to access this list of information. I have a 14 month pileup of photos I would like to print but cannot proceed. HELP.
CS6, I am not working in RAW (That is a whole other universe of confusion for me.)
Mac OS X version 10.6.8

Epson 2880 printer
Thanks for your patience with someone who was very comfortable with my F4 film camera and CS2, but is entirely lost in the digital world.
