Let printer determine colours

[Rufus2015]

I have been printing successfully from Adobe reader for ages.

I am now reprinting a booklet I last printed in 2016.

The cover has a nice photo on, which took many attempts to adjust to print correctly on my laser printer.

I used to print this with the 'Let printer determine colours' unchecked.

This used to give a noticeable difference in the colours.

But no more. Checking or unchecking this box now makes no difference.

This is a problem, as the picture on my booklet now does not match the previous run, in fact it now looks rubbish.

Has something changed or am I going mad......

Hi Rufus,

Apologies for the delay in response, I hope you would be able to fix it by now.

If the problem still persists,  we need some more information for a better understanding.
