I do a lot of my own printing on an Epson Stylus Pro 3880. I love the printer, and generally, most prints look good.
However, I also do a lot of post processing, using Lightroom, Photoshop, and Topaz mostly. Post processed, these images look great on screen. When I "soft proof", however, using the correct paper profile, I notice that many images look flat. I understand that many papers don't have the color gamut to capture the bright colors I like. This being the case, what is the point of post processing (using HDR effects, or Topaz Glow, or Topaz Impressions, etc.) if the processed image cannot be reproduced on paper. (I use quality Epson papers, such as Premium Photo Paper Luster, Velvet Fine Art Paper, and Hot Press Bright.)
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
