| Hi. I ordered prints of most of my portfolio and received them today - great service y'all! Anyway, my photos came back with a subtle yellow/brown cast to them. Probably not that noticable to anybody who hasn't seen the original but they don't look the way they are meant to look. Just to let you know, I compared the prints to my screen image and to my HP photo printouts. Does anybody have any suggestions as to how to correct the color in my printable files so that my images are printed in the colors they are meant to be seen in? Thanks! |

Unfortunatly the only accurate way to do this costs money.
You need to profile your monitor with a hardware calibration tool, like OptiCal from Colorvision and then get profiles from your printer and soft proof the images against those.
this article explains some of it and the Colorvision site explains some more about it. |

| Thanks Gordon, my prints photos look good on both of my monitors and my own printouts so I didn't think it was a problem on my end but I will read all of the information in your post. Thanks again, you are extremely helpful! |
