How Do I Get Blue Cast to B&W Photo
Oct 21, 2011 14:53:18 #
I'm currently using a Epson R1800 and printed 2 of the same photos that were 11X14 inches in size, and one had a light blue cast and the other one didn't. Any suggestions on how I can get rid of it would be greatly appreciated. Arnold

I have an R1800 also, Arnold and have not had that problem. I don't have any anwers for you, but are you using Epson cartridges? That is the only thing I can think of at the moment. By the way, I really like your images.

you may be running low on a color which is shifting the colors..happened to me on my HP ..everything came out blue..I am assuming you did not change anything in the picture in PS ?

I change 2 cartridges because they were low and I still had the same problems. No I didn't change anything in this photo before I printed it. Arnold

Arnold, I'm sure , like me , you only used Epson cartridges, but we are trying to think of anything that might be the problem. Have you printed anything after that one?

I'm in the process of cleaning my nozzles to see if that helps. I'll let you know if that makes a difference. Arnold

I cleaned my nozzles and it still didn't make a difference. I just sent this photo to Nation Photo Lab to get it printed. Arnold

Is your image in RGB or Grayscale. I have had some Epson problems in the past with a similar situation. Also if you can select to print with just the black cartridge instead of blending the black with other colors.
