Hi everyone,
I was thinking of setting up a couple of photo walls in my house, one for colour & one for black & white where I would display photos in probably a 4x6 or maybe 5x7 size and just add/change/subtract as I like. I have a Canon Pixma iP1200 printer, which admittedly was an extremely cheap printer I bought for printing out drafts of my thesis. I find it does a reasonable job on colour prints for this purpose but the black & white are coming out really rather sepia.
So my question is whether there is anything I can do to enhance the prints from my printer, or whether investing in a better printer will get a better b&w print or should I just take them somewhere to get printed instead?
(which detracts a little from spontaneous changes to the wall LOL!)
I guess the other question would be whether it is something in my conversion that is causing the brown tones, but I don't think so - I'm pretty much a beginner with photoshop so have been following tutorials rather than experimenting. I'll post one of the images for you to have a look at & see what you think. I'm using a laptop so the monitor is a bit difficult to match to the printer, however I've found the monitor tends to have a blue cast, could this be my problem?
Any CC on the image or b/w conversion also most welcome!
