I have no idea where to look for the answer to this question, but I do know that I will get a good answer here. I use the latest version of Photoshop Elements. My printer is an Epson 870, and I use Epson’s Colorlife Photo paper. I have shot a lot of pics with my new Canon 20D at the highest JPEG resolution. I open the jpeg files in Elements, do a little correcting of the color and brighness/contrast, and then print. Epson advised a special .icm driver to be used with its ColorLife paper, which I downloaded and put in the "ProgramFiles/CommonFiles/Adobe/Color/Profiles" folder, maybe not the best place to put the driver, but Epson’s documentation did not explain where to put the driver. I followed all of the other directions to the letter (on how to configure the printer to use the driver and the paper), and then under Element’s PrintPreview window, I clicked on "Print Space" and in the pulldown menu I chose Epson Color Life. Unfortunately, the prints have a distinct reddish cast. Do I need to calibrate my printer? Did I put the icm driver in the wrong location? What gives? Thank you.
