Hi,
I have a setup like this;
Samsung 226BW LCD monitor
Canon Pixma IP4300
Adobe Photoshop CS3
My objective is to COLOR MANAGE everything from my LCD up to printing using my new printer. FYI, I shoot with dslr and my photo uses Adobe RGB profile. Some info you may need to know;
1. Currently I'm using the OEM ink (bundled with printer, its new)
2. I don't have any software to generate profile (eg Profile Prism)
3. I don't have any hardware to color manage my lcd (eg SpyderPro)
I calibrate my gamma setting previously using Adobe Gamma and now using the Samsung driver (it gives better result IMHO). So i am now sure that my lcd is calibrated the best way possible without using hardware (which should give better result theoretically).
My questions;
1. Should I use the profile I created in the samsung driver in 1) photoshop and in 2)printer?
2. How do I profile my printer to be used with 3rd party ink and paper without software like Profile Prism?
3. I tried printing using my monitor profile and the result has heavy yellow cast. Why?
Please advise.
