Skip Herring Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) Hello... Well, I haven't used Affinity Publisher in a while. As I mentioned a while back... I 'was' a PagePlus User for a VERY LONG Time, and now you can't. I thought I'd try A.P. again, since there's been a few updates. Here's the Problem I'm having... and had back when I first used it, and stopped. How in he world do you get it to print the SAME Color, as what is on the screen? I've tried different settings, and it prints the same, no matter what! I had to switch to MS Publisher, and don't have any problems! I'd like to use Affinity, but not if it keeps printing the way it does!Please Help, if you can! Thanks, Edited April 20, 2021 by Skip Herring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pšenda Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 ICC Profile for monitor in OS? ICC profile for document? ICC profile for printer?

Skip Herring Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Hello, and thanks for your reply, however... I have NO Idea what ICC is! Color me stupid, but.... the only problem I am having with Color Printing, is with Affinity. I've tried it with both, Publisher and Designer. I NEVER had this problem with PagePlus, which I have NO Idea why you quit PP. I'm using an HP PC. I have a Canon Printer/Copier. When creating a Publishing..... I get it as I want it on the PC/Monitor....! When I print it..... the Colors are not close. For Instance: I need a Flyer for our upcoming Annual BBQ, and instead of doing it on MS Publisher, I thought I'd give it a try on Affinity, since there have been some updates! After creating... and using a Graphic with some color: Orange, Yellow, Dark Redish Brown/Light Brown... which is showing on the PC Monitor, but... when Printed, the Orangeish are Brown, the Yellowish are a Light Green/Olive, the Brown is black, and the Redish Brown is dark brown.I've tried different settings in the Color area on Affinity, and it comes out the same. It's NOT the Printer. Please... I'd rather use Affinity, but if I can't get it to print correctly... then I'll have to keep using MS Publisher. Sorry I've enclosed the two: One is my PC Screen, the other is what's printed. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.D. Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I have the same problem, would like to know how you solved this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren67 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Same here. Most of the colors match, but once in a while one color doesn't. I'm on a 2019 MacBook Pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
