[QUOTE="hark, post: 644679, member: 13196"] I don't have Photoshop Elements 14 so I don't know what printing options it offers. But here is a comparison of printing options between Photoshop Elements 10 and PCC. This is the dialogue box I see in [B]Photoshop Elements 10[/B]. There aren't any options for managing color. I choose my printer, set my size, and that's about it. The bottom line is in PSE 10, the printer manages the colors (the second photo should explain what that means). [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]271270._xfImport[/ATTACH] Below shows you how there are many more options for adjustments when printing in PCC. I have the same Printer Setup options in PCC that I had in PSE 10 (the first dialogue box below). The second box shows you there are a couple of options for Color Management that PSE 10 lacks. One is the printer can manage color (as I mentioned above that is the only option for PSE 10 above). But I have it set for Photoshop managing the color (first red arrow). The second red arrow shows which printer profile I want to use. There are many from which to choose. This is the profile that goes along with my calibrated monitor; however, there are times when I will choose a different profile. The reason is I can see the changes being applied to my image as I toggle through the various printer profiles. The third arrow (rendering intent) also changes things such as shadows, etc in the image. There are 4 from which to choose. Anyway, there are many more options to customize your printing when using PCC that may not be available to you in PSE 14. Again...since I don't have that specific version, I don't know exactly what options are there for you. Sharpening would be applied directly to the image although different amounts of contrast may give the appearance of a sharper image. And sometimes the variety of printing options in PCC will make it seem like some settings will yield a sharper image than other settings.
