Color Management and Print Accuracy in InDesign

Hello

I'm going to go crazy!!

I've been looking for weeks/months for color management on indesign.

I mainly work for documents for printing. I work in CMYK (well I think!)

Except that when I print on my personal printer to check the colors they are not the right colors... Purples are brown, fuchsias red... I think I don't have the right color profile, or poor color conversion. I must have imported a bad profile after downloading vectors from the net... I'm tired of not finding the solution.

I don't know how to do it anymore!

Help me

Sauf que quand j'imprime sur mon imprimante perso pour vérifier les couleurs ce ne sont pas les bonnes couleurs...

Ton imprimante perso, c'est quel type d'imprimante ? Une jet d'encre ? Une laser ?

 

Je pense ne pas avoir le bon profil colorimétrique, ou une mauvaise conversion des couleurs

Il faut que tu connaisses le profil de ton imprimante.

 

J'ai du importer un mauvais profil après avoir télécharger des vecteurs sur le net

Les profils ne s'appliquent pas tout seuls.

 

Un peu de lecture ici :

In order to achieve good color representation - you need to calibrate your monitor AND printer.
