Could someone please help me select the proper settings in CS3 to print to an HP 8850 on an iMac with OSX 10.5.5? Prints are coming with only shades of green and yellow. No blue or red. Printer is OK as prints from another program (iphoto) are OK, but not color managed as in CS3. Need to know what to select in the color management boxes and where to "disable color management in the printer dialog". Thank you for your help, Karen

Assuming you have your color settings in order in Photoshop’s Color Settings, your File > Print with Preview > Options > Color Handling dialog should be the place to setup your print and color management settings. I did a search for the 8850 where they mention it utilizes ICC profiles and is compatable with Photoshop CS3, so it may be a good idea to "Let the Printer decide on colors"; but you’ll want to experiment to find where the problem is.
