Ps 23 print issues - Saturation very low

Hi, so with Photoshop, you're perhaps using "Photoshop manages Color" - with printing from Preview, I imagine you'll be using 'printer colour management' / 'vendor matching' [where an ICC media profile is used, based on selected media option in the driver?]?

If that’s right, have you tried using 'printer colour management' from Photoshop?

One would imagine that Photoshop is simply handing an image file to the print driver if using 'printer colour management' - of course, though, if using "Photoshop manages Color" then Photoshop does get to mess with the colour en route. 

I am finding it hard to imagine a case where a printer driver needs updating to go with a new Photoshop version.

I hope this helps

When you updated PS, did you check for updated printer drivers as well? They dont auto update with the PS version.

Just because it prints in another application does not mean something in PS wasnt updated requiring a new driver update.

You can also try holding the space bar when you open the print window to reset your printing preferences and rebuild from scratch.
