I tried all of the above: couldn't change my embedded profile (Nikon Adobe RGB in RAW files) and tried "same as source," turning off all color management in the Epson.

Of note is that I called the Epson support people, and they couldn't tell me anything that I'd not already tried, saying "it's not the printer." Yet I've seen on other listserves that the Epson doesn't take kindly, for example, to being left on all the time, nor to hot weather (I live in Los Angeles with NO air conditioning). Short of replacing ALL my ink cartridges (which is a possible future step) I'm not sure what else to do.

I am planning to take my files into my digital store (the camera store where we bought both the Nikon and the printer) and asking them to print on their Epson -- they do this all the time for demo purposes. Results should be interesting!

Thanks for the reply, Mark. We're a relatively new Mac household, and I'm finding just how fundamental the differences between the Mac and XP are!

Robert, my Adobe (Elements) does not give me the option of changing the do***ent's colors to working space -- but it should be OK to have working space "same as source." That's why this problem has been so frustrating, since matching working space, source, and turning off all printer management should have given me the results I'm looking for!

Try the new driver; it's on the Epson site and mine was specific to Mac and to the 2200. Good luck!
