Digitaldog, thanks for all your replies. Do you happen to work for a printer, or know of a printer that works with photographers? Or could I possibly even send you my file to look at to see what I might be doing wrong. i am going to call a couple places tomorrow too. Have you by chance heard of Alphagraphics or knowmanything about them they seem to have a ton of locations..

Digitaldog- if I printed out my photos at home after editing them to look good from MY printer, and took them to a commercial printer and said make them look like this, would that work? A the end of the day I just want white to look white ☹️

Ugh then why even have a link to it? So there is a chance, that even if I find a printer who will send me an icc profile for soft proofing, it could be useless too? Why is finding a good printer who gives a sh!t so hard?

got it, okay the soft proofing seems to be working now, I downloaded a profile from modern postcard and from blurb just to see what they would do.

here is another somewhat unrelated question, but when I am trying to softproof a profile in photoshop, I go select the profile and then view proof, but nothing changes (form sample, even srgb to cmyk) . What am I doing wrong? Am I supposed to simulate paper color or not?

Thanks I'll check with them but I thought most commercial printers were toner based. Not sure makes a difference but will check with them on Monday regardless. This is why I'm looking into a printer who prints with the indigo as recomended to me (from what I understand it's as close as one can get to offset printing, but still digital printing and uses ink vs toner).

hi all, another question here. My booklets were printed with a whole ton of noise in them. This is not in my photos nor is it on my home inkjet prints, or on other proofs I received. But with 2 different printers it appeared on them. One printer said the dpi they printed with at 600 could have actually been too high. Is that a possibility. ? see attached photo

Thank the out for your reply. I wonder why some printers provide that and others do not? I suppose going forward I should only work with those that have and can provide one.

Hi all, I'm about to lose my mind. Some background: I'm a photographer who is trying to print some marketing materials for potential clients. I've gone to 4 different printers, and in my hasty decision making process even had one of the printers print me 100 copies (haste makes waste). In all the proofs I received there is some color shifting and the photos (more cool in most, one printer was more magentaish), in particular one of the photos, is sooooo dark! I know RGB-> CMYK does this. Not one of the printers I worked with had an ICC profile to send me. So I downloaded some random ones just to play around and view what it would look like. Can see significant color shifting, but it does not effect the darkness of the photo. I still see a well lit photo, until it's printed. My histogram looks good, with even a bulk of it to the right of middle. What am I doing wrong? I can't for the life of me understand gamuts and spot colors, and I have no idea what else. Speak to me simple, I just don't know where to go from here. Thank you!!
