Can anybody help, I’ve recently taken an image where the background is a deep rich brown (4c2f27), it’s basically an out of focus wall, when I printed the image the background came out as a sort of mid sage green. In fact the whole photo comes out lighter than shown on screen. I’m using CS2, Canon 20D with extension tubes & a Canon S330 photo printer. Any help would be welcomed.

Are you running short of ink?

What colour management methods do you use? (I.e. what is your colour management workflow?).
