    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    Thanks for taking the time to do this! This looks very much like it does on my prints. I guess it speaks to the hypothesis that there is nothing "wrong" with my printer, this is just the way printers, especially low end, work. And of course, comparing monitor and paper makes little sense, as...

    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    Thanks for showing me, and for the tip! I did the same, wiping off some ink from the bottle with a Q-tip on a paper next to the printed yellow square, and the colors matched very well as far as I could tell. So I think we can rule out printer or software errors, as well as contamination, as the...

    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    I didn't spill a drop when refilling, and the ink bottles came with the printer, which I bought just one week ago. If anyone would do me a favor, please print patch of pure yellow, and compare it to the yellow color on the ink bottle or cartridge, and tell me if the colors match. When I do...

    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    I didn't try ICM. It was set to PhotoEnhance by default, but I switched to "no color adjustment" in the print settings by recommendation from various forums, since I was using the color management in Lightroom and Photoshop. I tried just now, and it gave a slightly different result, but the...

    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    That would certainly explain it, but I don't see how. I have just bought the printer, and only filled ink once. Each time I was quite careful, I inserted the ink bottle, filled up the tank and then continued to the next one. The yellow is the second tank after black, and the lid would have been...

    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    Hi Ink Stained Fingers, and thank you for replying, I really appreciate it! I avoided putting too much detail in my original post, but I am aware (or let's say I have become aware during testing) of the issues you mention. There are things that speaks against my suspicion: -My monitor is not...

    Yellow color too dark/orange on ET-2750

    Hi all, I just bought an Epson ET-2750, and was initially impressed with the ease of use and trouble free setup. But I soon noticed something was weird with the colors in my prints, especially on photos. I know it is not a photo printer, but still. After a lot of tinkering with settings and...
