Title: Epson 4880 Color Problems
Post by: Todd K. on May 16, 2011, 02:56:10 AM
Hi Guys
I am really having color problems with my Epson 4880.  I wonder if I messed up my settings along the way.
I have the Epson Driver set to:
Color : Automatic
Epson SRGB


In Qimage under Color management I have the Monitor output Checked, and my current profile selected.

Under Printer output I have it unchecked.

What I am I doing wrong?

Hi Todd,
If you are using a printer profile, the the driver should be set to No Color Adjustment.
See screen snap.
I would really like to know the file name of the printer profile you have selected.
Then we can be sure all is correct.
We assume you have selected the correct paper and selected the quality you want also..

Let's go from here and see how you do.

I forgot to add this video.
It should clear up some confusion, and also guide you to select teh correct profile.
