Re: Prints are over saturated - excessive print contrast - since upgrades?
Work done since last email... Reinstalled LR 5.2 Reinstalled (copied) Moab icc profile from the internet Restarted Epson "Enema", as you described, downloaded new software from Epson site. Problem remains. No change, still contrasty print from LR5.2-Mavericks combo. NEWS UPDATE However, on a hunch and a simple move, I booted to new user "Test", with icc profile moved over and selected... ie print settings the same. PROBLEM SOLVED!! ALL THREE PRINTS NOW MATCH. LR5.2-MountainLion LR5.2-Mavericks PSD-Mavericks All match each other. Not sure what to do now, ie how to migrate user without moving the "trouble" back? Hmmmm. Any thoughts?

It's the profile or the device has changed (inks, paper), etc. The two match, that's key. Try another reference image but I suspect something changed at the print level.

My first thought is to copy the contents of the folder /Users[NEW-USER]/Library/ColorSync/Profiles into the analogous location for the old user. Rick Gordon ------------------------ On 5/30/14 4:13 PM, "Russ Widstrand" wrote:

Problem solved on my user. Apparently having two occurrences of a profile, one in the system library and one in the user library, and the user library selected in LR caused this issue. I deleted the one in the user library, restarted, copied a new version of the icc profile into the system library (matching the icc location of the successful user "Test") and then selected it in LR 5.2. Bingo. All is now fixed with all prints matching each other and a more normal result printing from LR5.2-Mavericks. Thanks to all for their help.

This is great feedback. Thanks for updating the list! We’ll be sure to get it in our next newsletter and spread the word. So, just to confirm, the two copies of the profile were the exact same profile? (not a different one under the same name) regards, Steve
