[QUOTE="todd7500, post: 644952, member: 44095"] Thanks again Hark (and everyone else) No I have not calibrated my monitors yet, looks like thats my first step to get a baseline on things. So I will look at the Spyders and get started on that. As far as them being IPS, the LT definitely isn't and my desktops most likely are not. They have a nice picture and good viewing angles but are just Wal-Mart brand HD "Element" TVs Step by step I am trying to duplicate every screenshot. I can do it however I still have some issues. There is (perhaps) a small improvement in the print, but I still dont think I am in control. I will attempt screenshots later to better describe. As an experiment, in the Manual Color Adjustment window, I jacked up the sliders to right (max) as far as they go. Still no drastic changes in the print, thus my questioning what profile the printer is seeing and who is in control PSE or Canon. I an determined to get this resolved and get good prints so I am prepared to invest where its needed, but before I throw money at the problem, I need to know what is working best for other Nikonites. Once that settled, I can "mimic" the gear. I have been contemplating upgrading to the full version of PS. May I ask what version you are using? It looks like you are using a Canon 7100 series printer. Are you happy with the prints you get? I have a Canon Pixma MG7220 and a Canon iX6820 that prints up to 13 x 19. I like the 13 x 19 format for prints so ultimately, when I get all this sorted out I will invest in a GOOD printer that allows 13x16 or larger format printing. I am open to suggestions from all on printers. Canon? Epson? models that you are using would be good to know, so that I can duplicate your settings and hopefully results. $1000.00 is about my max price range for a printer but... Thanks! [/QUOTE]
