Monitors display images using light, whereas desktop printers reproduce images using inks, dyes, or pigments. For 
this reason, a desktop printer can’t reproduce all the colors displayed on a monitor. However, by incorporating certain 
procedures (such as a color management system) into your workflow, you can achieve predictable results when 
printing your images on a desktop printer. Keep these considerations in mind when working with an image that you 
intend to print: 
If your image is in RGB mode, do not convert the document to CMYK mode when printing to a desktop printer. 
Work entirely in RGB mode. As a rule, desktop printers are configured to accept RGB data and use internal 
software to convert to CMYK. If you send CMYK data, most desktop printers apply a conversion anyway, with 
unpredictable results. 
If you want to preview an image as printed on any device for which you have a profile, use the Proof Colors 
command. 
To reproduce screen colors accurately on the printed page, you must incorporate color management into your 
workflow. Work with a monitor that is calibrated and characterized. You should also create a custom profile specif­
ically for your printer and the paper you print on. Using the profile supplied with your printer (although better 
than using no profile at all) yields only mediocre results.

Printing images 
Photoshop provides the following printing commands: 
Page Setup and Print 
Display options specific to your printer, printer drivers, and operating system. 
Print With Preview 
Displays Photoshop’s printing, output, and color management options. 
Print Online 
Allows you to send your print file directly to an online service that will do the printing for you. 
Print One Copy 
Prints one copy of a file without displaying a dialog box. 
Note: You cannot print images directly from ImageReady. If you have an image open in ImageReady and need to print 
it, use  the Edit In Photoshop  command to open the  image in Photoshop. Keep in mind that ImageReady images open at  
screen resolution (72 ppi); this resolution may not be high enough to produce a high-quality print.

Preview,  and select the  Scale To Fit  Media box. Click  Page  Setup to make any  changes to your paper  size  and layout,  and  
attempt to print the file again.
