Unless your hardware calibration includes the ability to measure and adjust luminescence, most screens (LCD especially) are too bright and give you a false sense of image brightness prior to printing. However, one last point when it comes to soft proofing, particularly with prints appearing too dark, is that your screen brightness is almost always too high.
The same image soft proofed for the 2200 should be different than one for your 280. Remember, printers are different (especially here, with the 280 using Claria dye inks rather than pigments), and ICC profiles are paper AND printer specific. Rather, it sounds like your soft proof "expectations" are based on past experience with your 2200. In this case, brightening the image is indicated.īut, I'm not sure that's what you meant to describe. If so, your soft proofing is "performing" correctly, that is, rendering a screen preview of what you will get in print. Do you mean that when you view proof colors, your soft proof is too dark and this matches the final print? BTW, you should double check your proof setup to assure you're viewing the soft proof via the appropriate ICC profile for your paper.
