Hello all, A customer came in recently with a duotone JPEG image to be printed. The image opened in Photoshop CS2 on one of our Mac workstations without any profile mismatch complaint. Our PS Color Settings are U.S. Prepress Defaults with its AdobeRGB (1998) editing space, and likewise our Onyx RIP is configured to "expect" arriving files to be in the Adobe RGB (1998) color space, although others, such a sRGB, ProPhoto RGB, etc. can be chosen if needed. Without regard to the image's duotone mode, I selected the desired media in Photoshop's print dialog box and printed it from the Mac workstation via Ethernet to our Onyx Productionhouse RIP. Where it arrived in the RIP queue it was composed with other jobs and printed. After the file was printed we could see that something had obviously gone wrong, as evidenced by scum dots in the image's white border, and less obviously in the image itself. But it gets worse... All subsequent images printed from the aforementioned workstation displayed the same problem. The RIP's Preflight displayed the values of the scum dots in white borders as: 2.0% Cyan, 3.1% Magenta, and 2.4% Yellow. I finally discovered that the duotone image had changed Photoshop's "Output" from "No Color Management" to "Let Printer Determine Colors", a setting that proved to be "sticky", as it was applied to all subsequent prints. The change wasn't visible, as it was hidden under the drop-down "Output" setting. In my defense, I can't recall ever printing a duotone image before this unhappy event. Has anyone else had this occur? Thanks, Richard -- Richard D. Warner Warner Graphics, Inc. 22 Washington Street Camden, Maine 04843 Tel (207) 236-2065 Tel (800) 875-2422 Fax (207) 230-2422
