Printing Grey In Color Space
I'm creating images in Photoshop and printing to a Xerox solid ink printer. If I print in greyscale everything is fine, but if I have an image that has both color and B&W portions, the greys come out green (or brown depending on whether I print from CMYK or RGB). Is there any way to have a portion of an image in a color space and others in greyscale? what I might try as far as the printer? If I print CMYK the greys come out really green but all the other colors are good. If I print RGB the greys come out browner (which is a little better), but other colors get muddy. Is there any way to get a printer to stop trying to "interpret" greys as a color when in a color mode?

PS 7 Grey Becomes Pink
I just recently got photoshop 7 and have a problem with it, I currently have PS6 installed and it runs fine. When I installed PS7 today as it was starting up after the installation it came up with a problem with my monitor I ignored it because I didnt and still dont think it is/was the problem. The problem I have is well...pink. Everything is pink, many shades of pink, I can even get some dark purples but thats it I have no access to normal colors, even when I change the RGB settings.

Grey Mystery Box
I now scan an image or bring even an old one up into photoshop I am getting a little grey box in the upperleft hand corner and in it is a number 1 and some other symbol which I cannot make out. This does not happen when I bring the same images up in Paintshop or painter. I recently had to uninstall Zone Alarm and am wondering if this could have something to do with it or maybe it isn't even a PS problem but something on my computer.

Grey Scale In PS7
I have recently installed PS7 on my laptop and when creating a new project, the defaul is sent on grey for the color, when I set it to RGB or CMYK and want to choose a color, I get the standard color box with about 20 colors instead of the color pallet I used to get. What is the setting I'm looking for and how to I set it as the default?

Layers Menu Grey
While editing some, but not all files in PSE2, I find the layers menu and palette grey and unusable. This mostly occurs when I import a file from the web. I have tried saving the file in tiff or pdf format, but still cannot get the layers to work.

How Do I Reduce The Big Grey Background
I just installed CS4 and I now find that I canonly see a single image at a time, as there always seems otbe a big gey background surrounding the current image. A right click allows me to chnage the useless background color, but not get rid of it. I can't drag from the corner to reduce the size. How do I make it so I can work with and see more than one image at a time?

Spacing And Grey Boxes...
How can I make the space between lines like the pic I attached,space them so its 5 or 6 pixels apart? It looks really bad doing it freehand,is there a way to just set the space so it looks even? And how can I add colours to the empty space? Must I use white background instead of transparent? Final question,how can I do those grey boxes like those on URL banner. And those lines that fade out plus how can I sort of make the lines "pop-up" or have that 3d effect,sort of like emboss I guess.

Fade White But NOT To Grey
I am trying to reduce the Opacity of some white text so that it looks faded. However I want the background that this appears on to be black. The problem is that it changes to grey the lower the Opacity. I understand that this is because of the black background but can not think how to get around the problem.

Layer Thumbnail Is A Grey Box?
instead of showing the thumbnail of an image in my layers panel, I got a grey box for any layer that is in there. Normally I would see a mini-version of the graphic that I am editing. Is this something that I did or touched that made this happen, if so, how do I reverse this?

Finer Shade Of Grey
Open a new doc in Greyscale mode, and use your Color palette in RGB Spectrum to select your hue of grey/colour. And to get a finer shade of grey/colour within the hue of grey/colour you're working with, click on the little arrow (top right of Color palette) and open up the drop down menu and select Current Color. This will give you a finer palette of grey/colour saturation to work with.

Grey/Pink Colour!
I recently came across with Photoshop. Basically when I try to use grey as a colour, it seems to have a pink hue to it and looks terrible. The grey isn't pure and looks all sorts of wrong. I've checked the colour settings and everything is default, my monitor seems fine as the usual grey appears perfectly on any websites. It's just on Photoshop, things simply don't look right. So I'm a bit stuck on what to do next, as anyone else had this problem before and is there a possible fix? To better describe, I have provided a picture of the problem, as you can see the grey looks wrong and as a pink hue.

PS CS4 PROBLEM Grey Screen No Matter...
So I installed PS CS4 and all updates. When I create a new file or open an existing one the window (in the PS window) which is supposed to show the photo just stays grey. At the same time that little picture in the layers tab showing a small version of the picture Ive opened is clearly visible and changes if I draw on the big one. That problem occurs both in 32 and 64 bit versions of PS. Im using windows vista x64 ultimate with latest updates and Nvidia 8800GT 512 mb with latest drivers.

Grey Transparent Overlay On Canvas
I'm using MacPro bootcamp with Vista. Dual screen with Graphic Card ATI X1900.Everytime I use the Full screen mode I get an overlaying grey transparent color covering the canvas. I have to restart the program to reset the display. Open GL on/off doesn't fix it either.I have tried updating card drivers and CS4. As far as I know it only happens in Photoshop and not the complete master collection.

PS CS2 Grey Action Buttons Color Coded?
I downloaded an action from Adobe web site and when I have my actions set to button mode, the button for this action is blue while the rest are all grey. I also noticed that the default frame action buttons are orange. Is there a way to color code these action buttons myself? It would be nice to catagorize them by colors.

Photo Printing - Not Printing To Border
i've tried both borderless and non, I've also realigned by cartridges and updated drivers and program. When I'm printing with Photoshop CS, didn't do it on 6.0, it's not printing properly at all. It's not printing to the edges of the paper (4x6) and the space it's leaving on all sides isn't even. If I choose borderless it's even worse and if I print a larger picture on 8.5 x 11 and pick center, it's not even close, I'm talking inches off.

Printing With CS4
I just bought the PHOTOSHOP CS4, and I am having problem when it prints. The image is not clear, it has dots (pixels). This computer where I installed this program is brand new. I have previously worked with Photoshop CS2 and never had an issue but was force to buy this new one because the computer that I bought has Windows Vista and CS2 is not compatible. I thought maybe the problem was my printer but is not I have a Brother HL-5140 (black and white). I have connected my old computer with the printer and the images print perfectly fine. I have printed photos and it prints clear. But this only happens with Photoshop CS4. It prints dots,

Printing In CS4
I have just started using CS4, having upgraded from CS2. When I go to print in the print dialog box and go to the Printer Profiles box I am unable to see or select my paper profiles for my Epson 2200 and R300 printers. There is a large number of profiles, primarily various color spaces, but only one paper profile for my Epson 2200. There also isn't any arrow or other way to scroll through the display to see the missing paper profiles. All of the missing profiles are the standard paper profiles provided by Epson either with the printers or from their website. Do I need to reinstall these profiles in some way in CS4 or is there something else I should be doing to be able to access these profiles?

Printing In CS4
In CS3 you could print multiple images on a sheet like a photo studio by going to File-Automate-Print Package and in CS4 that option isn't there and I can't find any information on it.

CS3 Printing
Tried to print a 10ft panoramic landscape with CS3 on an Epson 1290 with disastrous results. Only prints about 4ft then aborts. Worse still what it did manage to print was 5ft of the the panorama compressed into that 4ft, the width had been compressed by my assessment as much as 15/20%. Previously had no problems with CS2 so I have had to reinstall CS2 to effectively do all my printing (especially long landscapes). Even gone to the extent of reformatting computer and reinstalling everything from new. So Adobe can you please tell me what good is it or the point in releasing a program that you cannot trust to print? I don't trust Photoshop CS3 to do any of my printing anymore, not even A4 or A3 sizes.

Printing
I use photo shop for everything on our company, from designing websites and multimedia screens to art that will get printed. The company uses a SAVIN C3535 for our printed material, and it used to get us really good print quality...until now. When I print stuff directly from Photo shop it creates a weird "cutout" effect on the pictures (people and logos mostly) and creates like a black "noise" surrounding any black text in my art. Color text and shapes print out fine. Anything with tones looks bad. If I send the same file to print to different printer, it looks awesome! Obviously it is the printer...Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this? i already contacted the printers' tech support, but they haven't been able to fix it (they keep blaming photo shop)

CS3 Printing @ 500% In...
This is with resample off, so the final product will be printed at 200ppi. As part of our (forensic) workflow, we print images at 500%. There are different ways of doing this, but some people in the office specify this in the Print Preview Pane, whereas I do it directly to the image in PS before going to print. After switching to CS3 from CS, it was noticed that 500% for a 1000ppi image (physically less than 36mm X 24mm at 1:1) was being limited to a bit less than 400%. An error box would pop up saying the value must be between 0.00% and XXX.XX%... and it would automatically select the maximum in the range. For a 1000ppi original image, the upper range would be around 370%. I tried it with a 2400 ppi image (5MB) and was limited to ~150%. Apparently this is not a specific number, but some sort of resolution-based maximum. The printer used for output doesn't appear to matter as we've tried a couple of different ones. Is there some sort of maximum percent of image size allowed for printing, based on resolution that can be selected in the Print Preview Pane?

Printing On OS X
I am transitioning from OS 9 to OS X and am running into some problems with printing. I am using a G4 mac DP, 1.25 Mhz. and an Epson Stylus Photo 820. and I'm running both systems on my G4. I had been using PS 7 with OS 9 and printing out pictures without any problems but I recently downloaded the Try out version of Adobe PS CS2 and decided to use it to print out some of the pictures on OS X. In the Print Preview the options were set to let the printer determine colours. When that was OK'd the next print page showed only the printer and the presets which said Standard. The problem I'm having is that the picture takes less than a minute to print and is of poor quaility compared to printing the same picture on OS 9 with PS 7 which takes maybe 2 or 3 minutes. The printer is printing at 300 dpi on OS 9 but i'm not sure what it is printing at on OS X. Not sure how to check that with OS X. Like I said earlier I'm not that familiar with OS X yet.

PPI Vs DPI And Printing
if I understand PPI and DPI correctly. PPI dtermines the actual reoslution of the picture and DPI really determines how much ink the printer will spray per inch as it prints out. So I guess I would like to know if anyone has suggestiosn to these three questions. 1. When scanning an image in, does DPI Actually refer to PPI? If so, what DPI/PPI shoudl I scan at. 2. In photoshop cs3 does the "Pixel Demenssions" section refer to PPI and the actual DPI section refer to the DPI setting for the printer? 3. What would be the best PPI and DPI settings for printing out the 3foot by 2foot poster?

Printing In Lab...
I have a document thats currently in CYMK color mode, and I'm having difficulty finding satisfactory colors. I was advised elsewhere to abandon CYMK. I therefore want to convert my image into to LAB color mode. I've read that converting from one color mode to another can cause layers to look funny, however I need to retain some of my layers... Do you guys typically have problems with this? In retrospect I should have STARTED in Lab... Seems that converting from CYMK to LAB wouldn't be as problematic as converting from LAB to CYMK... The key question is this: will my printer (Epson R800) even be able to print in LAB mode? I thought yes, or at least closely... because it has much more than CYMK to work with... it has these cartridges: #1 Blue UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge T054920 #2 Cyan UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge T054220 #3 Gloss Optimizer UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Cartridge T054020 #4 Magenta UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge T054320 #5 Matte Black UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge T054820 #6 Photo Black UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge T054120 #7 Red UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge T054720 #8 Yellow UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Ink Cartridge Finally, in the print screen menu should I be "letting photoshop manage colors" or letting "printer manage colors"? Do you guys have any other tips on how to tweak printer/photoshop settings/preferences to maximize the accuracy of my colors? Would I possibly be better off just using RGB?
