Re: [colorvision_group] Re: I Am Stumped with Epson R1800, CS3 and OS X 10.5.4 -Dark and Orange shift.

I assume you are using the Epaon profile via the driver and our  
profile via Photoshop? If so your issue is not the profile it is a  
known issue somewhere in CS3 and the OS. Adobe recommends updating to  
the latest build of CS3 to solve this.
