When I print a .jpg picture from my HP photosmart, the colors that show on the screen in Adobe Photoshop are not the colors that print out. How do I get the printer to print the true colors?
Managing color can be difficult. In Photoshop, choose Image in the menu at the top of the screen. Then choose Mode and notice the color mode of your image. Usually, photos from your digital camera will use the RGB color mode. RGB is a screen color mode; that is, it shows you the best colors for displaying an image on a screen such as a computer monitor. You can try changing the color mode to CYMK which is a print color mode. Additionally you can use that menu item to choose a Color Profile for your image. At the bottom of that menu list, choose Assign Profile. Click the box next to the word Profile. In the drop down menu, look for the name and model number of your printer, and choose it. As you can see, there are several options and combinations of options for getting the colors you see on the screen to be the same as the colors from your printer. It takes a lot of experimentation. Don't be afraid to change color modes and assign different profiles until you get what you want. Further, look in the Photoshop Help menu and read the section on Producing Consistent Color.
Hope this helps,
Sherry
