suicide1405241470 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2004 HI,I'm not an expert (yet!) in PS7. But I'm wondering why there's a color difference between what you print on a home printer and what you send to the lab to be developed (on photo paper)????I did a montage with KAKI (pale green) borders, it looked good on the screen and on my printer. SO I sent the file to be developed on photo paper. To my suprise the borders are now LIME (green) color, instead of the more KAKI green (Original montage). Is there anything I can do to get a more WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) feel between the ORIGINAL, PRINTED and DEVELOPED (photo paper) versions????

Also, if you use glossy photo paper, you get the impression of more vivid colors and higher contrast, thus otherwise pallid colors might look a bit more intense.Also, some printers have a different color range than others.This depends on the type of ink, the number of ink cartridges and the technology used (lithography, thermosublimation,...).It would help a lot, however, if I knew which printer you use at home and- if possible- which printer they use at the lab where you send your pictures to.
