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

Just to be clear and maybe to help others - printing the test target

Color matching = Epson Color Controls

Print Settings = Paper Type, Color and Color Settings = Off (No Color
Adjustment). Not Epson Standard or worse, Vivid. Or Adobe RGB.

And the usual settings for quality and gloss optimizer on.

Is that right?
