Stylus Photo R2400, paper Hahnemuehle, ICC profile

Hans Joachim Klotz , Aug 29, 2008; 12:34 p.m.

Hello forum

I have buy the printer Epson Stylus Photo R2400. I have install the printer software. I have print some papers. I used "Print With Preview". I found the prints have not good quality. Some people say I must install the printer profile ICC. I do this later. Instruction as link http://www.hahnemuehle.com/media/downloads/62/Print_Instruction_Epson.pdf. Before I copied the profile in the folder I had a look in the folder an see the folder is empty.

After that I restart Photoshop and found nothing different things and menus in window "Print With Preview".

Wondering ??

What can be the reason ?

Thanks. ;-)

what are you selecting as for your icc profile in Photoshop?, do you let photoshop determine color? do you turn off color management in the epson driver..

tell us exactly what you select and where..some screen capture could help also.

If youre menu doestn look like this on the latest version of MacOS Leopard, or on your epson driver ..thats because you dont have the latest version.

What folder did you put the .icc file into?

What is the exact name of the profile, or profiles, you put in that folder?

Which paper are you using?
