I want to print an image from PS which has a transparent background, but it prints with a beige background.
I dearly want the printed product to have a white background (and yes, I am printing on white paper!), so I have then created a new background layer and made it white, but it then prints out as light-yellow!
(And I notice that all the other parts in the logo’s and photo’s that should be white, also print as yellow.)
This has happened to me several times.
The irritating thing is that one day it will print out correctly (with no background, ie. white on the paper) and then the next day it just jumps into this bizarre-mode.
And I have not changed any of the settings/color management in the meantime.
In the past, I had a more-experienced colleague come and play with all the colour settings etc. until it worked… but she cannot remember what she actually did to fix it, and we still don’t know WHY this happens.
It does not seem to be anything to do with the colour settings on the printer. This problem affects InDesign also.
I have PhotoshopCS, on a PC with Windows XP, and my printer is a Tektronix Phaser 740. And I am very new at Photoshop!
