I am experiencing intermittent strange behavior when RGB Default is
not set to Generic RGB in ColorSync preferences when printing.
Sometimes things come out the way I expect, and other times they are
coming out green (keeping the RGB Default set to an Epson 2200
printer). This is just such a major clusterf*ck I don't even know how
to begin complaining except to call it a major clusterf*ck twice in a
row. And based on John's description of what's not supposed to happen
with these settings, it shouldn't be happening, and yet here I am
experiencing it randomly if RGB Default is not set to Generic RGB.
At last... someone else who is experiencing these problems ... with
'tagged' images!
I don't understand why all this is so complicated. It's a mess.
John's response to my initial post about this, was pretty much standard
... silence. Did you try the routine I suggested Chris, in my 'tagged'
post? I know this is a ColorSync list, but it often seems like a
Photoshop list ... anyway, I think this whole issue is really clearly
demonstrated by the difference in printing between Preview (under
Panther) and PS. Preview does exactly what you would expect and the
soft-proof button works. PS .... well if you have a few weeks to
spend trying to nail down what is actually being converted,
unconverted, double converted not converted, then it's all just dandy,
otherwise ... it's a large and uncomfortable PITA.
Or is this just the sort of thing that if you want it to work
correctly we'll have to pay for yet another bug fix update in 10.4?
This has reached a whole new level of insanity for what consumers are
expected to put up with.
I think Apple have shares in Epson's paper and ink division. <s>
