Color Printer Directions

1. Open your Image in PhotoShop
2. Go to: File> Print...
3. In the Print Dialogue Window, make these changes:
A. Printer: EPSON Stylus Photo
B. Color Handling: Photoshop Manages Colors
C. Printer Profile: SPR2400 PremLuster Photo.icc (scroll down to find it!)

4. Click the Page Setup Button
5. In the EPSON Stylus Photo R2400 Properties Window, click the Advanced button in the bottom right-hand corner (click Continue on the “warning” message...)

6. Under Paper & Quality Options, change the paper to: Premium Luster Photo Paper
7. Under Color Management, toggle-on: ICM
8. Toggle-on: Off (No Color Adjustment)

Click OK and Print!

Note One: If you are printing multiple pictures, you need to:
In the Print Window, Switch the printer to Adobe PDF and then back to: EPSON Stylus Photo
Repeat steps 4 through 9

Note Two: The printer will print a shade darker… you might want to “bracket” a few images (make three versions of the same image: original, one darker, one lighter) and print a test page.
