It’s working purrfectly on my system using either the Epson profiles for a Photo915 printer
C42UX or an
Accucolor 900

sounds suspiciously like a bad monitor profile. Have you tried adobe gamma? start with a new profile – not your old one.
Unless he has tweaked the file, a change in the monitor profile should not change the print. At least, that’s my understanding.
jjames,
You just added another reason to hold off on Photoshop CS. My 2200 works quite well and I sure don’t want to "break" it.

It’s working fine for me (and the 30 or so prints I made last week).
I have this problem also on my Dell running XP, but not on my Toshiba running Win2000. Perhaps it is a bios or hardware compatability problem since obviously many people are not experiencing the problem. What hardware and OS are you using?
It works fine for me too. Check the info below on Magenta tint in printing to epson 2200 printer: the most common reason that I’ve seen is double profiling. Ian Lyons description of printing complete with screen grabs needs to be reviewed carefully. If you haven’t readjusted your old files and the printing is magenta, it has nothing to do with the monitor profile. Either the printer icc is off (unlikely) or somehow the printing settings have gotten changed (most likely)
Check your settings in the Photoshop print dialog and the Epson driver dialog.
Your results should be the same between PS 7 and PS CS.
I am having exactly the same problem with my 2200 going from Ver 5.5 to Ver 7.0…this is NOT an adjustment problem, it is a bug. I found the workaround myself…the only other approach is to edit in Photoshop and PRINT in another program like Qimage…not very neat!
I hope that someone admits this is an issue soon and creates a fix.
My suspicion is that in upgrading, something is left behind that needs to be removed!
Duncan – it is certainly not a bug, there will be no fix (because there is no bug).
You are doing something different in the two versions, and thus getting different results.
