I'm working with a multiple workstation environment and they print to the Onyx from the workstations....Mac and PC.
I was printing from a PC when I noticed this problem.

Why are you printing to the rip from photoshop?
You can just drag and drop the file into the cue to avoid the print cycle altogether.
Cheers,

I think you spelled the word "manages" in those dialogs wrong. The way
to write it is reads m-a-n-g-l-e-s.
Only "Photoshop Manages Colors" or "No Color Management" should be
used. If you select "Printer Manages Colors" then the Mac printer
driver on the machine you're running on gets called in and starts
mangling your files to look like green orc blood.
As printer drivers run now on Macs, finding one setting which works
consistently and using it all the time, however inconvenient seems to
be the recipe for a happy and heart-attack free life. You found a
setting that works - great, now stick to it!

Hi List,
I've ran across an odd problem printing to an Onyx Rip. I was getting a green cast in the Rip preview and from the resulting print.
When I opened the image directly into Onyx from the hard drive of the workstation the Onyx was on, there was no color cast. When I printed from a remote laptop with the image in Photoshop CS3, it previewed in Onyx and printed with the green cast.
Finally, instead of using "Printer Manages Colors" in Photoshop's Printer Handling pull-down, I selected "No Color Management" and the problem cast went away. Why?
