How to set up color proofing

221 views2 repliesLast post: 12/6/2004
I have a LaCie monitor (calibrated with a colorimeter) and an Epson 1280 printer - paper calibrated with Monaco EZColor. I know how to set up my printer controls to print from Photoshop CS.

I need someone to tell me how to set up "Proof Setup" and "Print with Preview" block by block. Which profile do I put where? I think I'm doing everything correctly - but my prints are coming out with a definite reddish cast. Thanks........

Buy Photoshop Artistry by Haynes and Crumpler. That will tell you everything to know to get started. Alternatively, open Photoshop, hit F1, go to index, click on S, scroll down to soft proof, and it lays it out for you in easy steps.
