print preview with CS2 different to screen view?? Help

[marchcot]

When prining with CS2 and using print preview, the print preview that comes up is much softer and paler in colour to the picture I have on the screen, the print that comes out is the same as the preview version - I imagine my settings must be wrong somewhere, how can I get the print preview screen to show what I have created?

Hope that makes sense and hope someone can help.

Thank you in advance.

yes,i know what you mean and find the same thing myself,sometimes i get a good photo,others well i am dissapointed with the result.I used to use ms digital image suite to print and i always got good results BUT i now have a 400D and there is no raw plugin for it so at the moment i am using the canon
photo pro to print my raw images.i have an Epson R800

To malamute:
The latest version of Adobe Camera Raw 3.6 supports the 400D.
Look here for the update: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/cameraraw/

Marchot: although I never print my photos myself, this looks like a printer calibration problem. Search the forums for printer and profile and I trust you'll find an answer to your question.

Good luck,
