I've recently made the change from X3 to X5. In X3 I had all the colours printing out fine but now the colour management window has changed. I just printed something blue and it came out teal. I exported it to a cmyk jpeg and printed from photoshop and it comes out fine, just as it looks on screen.
What do I change to fix this?

You did notice that you have CD handling color and applying a profile and that's not what you have in PS.
Ok try setting to color conversions performed by, setting to the printer and correct colors using color profile to sRGB.
Yes! that was it. (sorry I didn't see your last post for some reason) Came out fine once I changed the Color Conversion to the Printer. Can't understand why I didn't try this myself...
Thanks for your help David.
Hi David,
I am glad I was on the right track with this one. In one of my earlier posts, the one with the 3 bulleted points, I asked emtx if he was using Let Photostop Manage Colors or Let Printer Manage Color, but I never received a response to that question. I noticed Draw was set to manage colour in the CorelDraw dialog.
As they say, all's well that ends well.
Best regards,Brian.
Hi emtx,
I am glad you have it sorted. The funny thing is, your image printed perfectly on my 2 printers letting Draw handle the colours.

The key is if the printer handles the conversion make sure you send sRGB
