You should find the option to disable printer colour management under "print settings" - a button in Photoshop's print dialogue - see screenshot below

- this opens the Epson driver's own dialogue set

where you will see [under color matching] two options

 

colorsync or epson color controls

 

On a modern printer driver, when selecting Photoshop manages Color these will have been automatically greyed out, so the selection has already been made for you.

 

 

have you tried making a print?

if your screen is well calibrated/profiled and you have a good printer profile [and have selected the correct media type, in the driver options, as specified by the profile maker]  then you should see a reasonable match 

 

 

 

I hope this helps

Hi Neil,

Thank you so much for your reply.  I have pasted a screen shot of my print settings box to show you my problem. There is no colour matching option so I can't disable the printer from managing the colour. Any help would be much appreciated

Can you make a good print?

 

Please make a screenshot of the media types listed under "Media and Quality"

you may not have Epsons own driver there. 

 

You should see a list like this -

Here's an example of what I'd expect to see in an Epson driver for media name options:

 

PM me please, when you're replied so I don't miss it
