jimdesu Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Hi there, I finally finished spotting my last 6x9 scan, and started doing the fun playing w/ it last night (in Photoshop 7). I used LAB color to do the manipulations -- when I tried to print the image on my Epson 2200, all I got was black & white! Even though the screen image was clearly in color.... I tried converting the image back to RGB, and it still prints only in B&W. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdesu Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 I printed other color stuff last night just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewkane Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Sure you didn't desaturate somewhere? Check the channel mixer. Check your channel tab on the layers, channels, paths toolbar. I'll bet somewhere you omitted the color info on accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshall Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Weird. If you can see the color, it should print the color. I'd think that you must have disabled A&B just to work on L, but then you wouldn't see color. Did you go through the print driver and target space settings?

jimdesu Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 Yes, I checked gamut, selected the profile for the printer, &c. I *did* at one point choose for a particular layer to only use the L data, but that was just for a single layer, and didn't remove the color overall. Unfortunately, now that it's in RGB, I can't back anything out. Any ideas as to how to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
