Scanner color management settings help
PostPosted: Tue Jul 29, 2003 6:17 am
I wonder if anyone can help me figure out the color management settings in Lasersoft 6 for Microtek Artixscan 2500f flatbed scanner, running on Windows 2000.
I created a scanner profile using Monaco EZcolor 2.5. I then entered the settings recommended in Ian Lyons's tutorial, "Silverfast Ai and HDR colour management," Example 5. I made sure that the Internal profile is the same as the working space in Photoshop (in my case, Adobe RGB 1998)
My test scans (e.g. Kodak gray step-wedges) open in Photoshop with a distinctly green cast.
When I use the settings in Example 1 of the tutorial (that is, no color management at all), the test scans open with neutral gray values that are much closer than those of the color-managed versions, but I am still hoping that I can get closer with a scanner profile.
I must be doing something wrong. Any hints or things I ought to check?
Thanks.
