I have just printed and scanned the print prism target. i have the canon LIDE 300 scanner and i used lightroom 6 to print the target. i turned off all the preferences in the scanner driver, in Lightroom driver select none, in the print module i can not turn to off or none , only printer manages colour, When i use the PP Prifile to print in Lightroom the colours Look slightly washed out. Does anyone know the correct print procedure to follow when printing a PP target in lightroom

You can't.. Lightroom will always use color management to print. Search for Adobe color print utility aka ACPU to print your target. When your profile is done you can then use it in lightroom

Thanks for the advice. Printed the Print Prism Target in ACPU, Scanned it in Print Prism and then printed a test print in lightroom and WOW, the colours are better and the Blacks are a true black now. I have had ICC profiles done by Pro's before but i would say the Print Prism Profiles are a step above. for the $52AU for Print Prism i can profile all my papers for the cost of paper and ink

I'm still so surprised by all the positive feedback about the new product. I used the previous software by DDI (Profile Prism). It worked OK but it was very scanner and paper dépendant. I eventually gave up on it and bought a new at the time colormunki
