I have many years of experience with film photography and darkroom work. After a few years off, I’m returning to photography and have a Canon Rebel XT, Photoshop Elements 4, and a HP DeskJet 930C printer.
To get the best results, I realize I probably need to upgrade to the full version of Photoshop and to a more recent printer.
I create photographs in RAW format with my Rebel XT and am beginning to learn how to use Photoshop Elements to optimize those photographs as they appear on my computer screen. My problem is that my printer doesn’t produce prints with colors similar to those on my screen – they all have a green cast.
Can anyone direct me to information that will help me calibrate the system so that printed pictures look similar to those on my screen?
I’d also appreciate any suggestions about what printer I should consider buying. For the present, I’m content to stay within the 8 x 10-inch format.
