We're having a problem with printing to an HP2500CP
plotter from Powerpoint (XP or 2003) from a PC. The
problem does not happen when printing from a Mac. We only
see the problem when printing what are called flourescent
photomicrographs which are black backgrounds with red or
green or orange subjects that are fairly dark and quite
saturated. The screen images of these have a very solid
black background. If the photomicrograph is saved from
Photoshop as an EPS with Postscript color management
turned on, it prints OK. An EPS with PS color management
turned off makes the image print with too light a
background (looks like a gamma correction). JPEGs print
the same incorrect way. All these images print fine from
a Mac, screw up from a PC. We've updated the Postscript
driver to the latest one for Win2k from the Adobe site, no
help. We've tried tweaking all the advanced settings in
the printer dialog box, no help. The printer is captured
to a Win2k Server print queue and we have the same problem
printing directly to the printer from the server.
It seems that this may be a Postscript print driver issue -
anyone have any suggestions? As I don't get by the group
very often, please email suggestions to
skilborn_at_wfubmc.edu. Thanks.
