Related: About this forumPhotos printing purple
I'm trying to print some shots from a Canon 70D - CR2 to DNG's adjusted in Bridge then converted to TIFF with CS4. Printing to an Epson CX4400 from a 2012 build MacBook Pro running Sierra. Prints are coming out with a serious purple cast.
Using the sRGB color profile in CS4.
Any thoughts?

And the ink carts are all ¾ full.
Using Epson Photo Premium Glossy paper.

(67,406 posts)3. is the on screen image correct color? perhaps you are using two profiles which
conflict. in my experience if the issue seems to be printing related I might have the profiles on or off in conflict between the printer driver profiles and the software profiles. Using corel and printer I have to deselect allowing printer to use its own profiles.

Turn off the srgb profile and make sure your document is in cmyk mode.

Thank you!
