I have been using PS CS4 since it came out. I always use matte black ink on my Epson 2200 printer (It's old too) but has always produced wonderful prints. Also I used the calibrating system built into my Imac. I recently upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard and the colors are terrible. The original settings no longer produce a good image.

Try re-calibrating the monitor. Perhaps the upgrade reset something.

I have tried calibrating several times with the calibration on the Mac. I think I will call Apple tomorrow and have them help me. I'm sure I am missing something somewhere. Thank you for your suggestion.

I just noticed where you are. At least you have an Apple store nearby!

If not, we could make it one!

Anyone from Allegheny, Garrett, or Washington County?

Ginny - Did you get your problem solved?

Yes, I did, just today. Called Adobe and was told that since I had just upgraded my system to Snow Leopard I had to uninstall CS4 and reinstall it. Once done, still looked bad but after fiddling with the color settings for awhile I got it back to "perfect." Thank you for asking. I am now a happy camper.

You were correct in that the upgrade upset the colors
