I just bought Printfix Pro - it did a great job on on calibrating 2 monitors. I then profiled Epson Premium Glossy paper on an R1800. The output from the test proofing ( the groups of 4 pictures of the 16 total pictures) look great, so the profile must be right. So I try printing various pix via CS3 and my printer, including the PDI test image. Horrible. Very dark, very red, huge colour shift to orange. Heavy shadowing. I ran as many troubleshooting tests, clean nozzles, etc., when printing with the Epson profiles the results are OK. The PDI print looks good, especially flesh tones. CS2 running in OS X 10.5.3 ( I have CS2 to use Genuine Fractals as I am too cheap to upgrade GF to whatever version it is now and I use it rarely) prints with the custom PrintFix profile great. Any ideas, tips, experience really welcome. Oh, I used the 3.01 version of Printfix from the web site - the CD that came with it says 1.X on the CD.
