    Alright, I just printed it from Photoshop and it looks good. The only thing that could be changed is the Nicotine and PG/VG font. But it printed pretty well, the arial fonts are nice and defined, readable which is important. The gradient is nice. Now why does my printer not print like this?

    Never printed directly from photoshop, how do I print from photoshop? This simple problem of not being able to print good looking labels is stalling my new website launch date. I guess I'll take it in somewhere for advice.

    I own a business that involves a lot of label printing. I designed a label in Photoshop that we love and we would like to keep, however. Our Cannon printer is not doing the trick, it sometimes prints off, but that's an easy fix. The man thing is the quality of the printing is horrible, I used a...
