Default Another C88 color question: printing neon greenish color
T-Shirt Hobbyist here...using the epson c88+

I use a program called photoimpact

I am printing a design...my screen shows a fairly neon greenish color...it prints out Christmas tree green. Is there anything I can do...

(I need simple layman terms and directions )

Thanks for the help!!

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think you can get a good "neon" colored print from an inkjet transfer.

Nope. Not gonna do it. Your screen will always show brighter colors than can be printed. I know of ways in Photoshop to tweak the prog to give you a better representation of what will print, but not in PhotoImpact. After a while you start too know what you can work with.

Kristen . . . I have photo Impact also . ..

here are two samples that I printed out --- that might come close enough for what you are looking for --
the one marked --- #One prints closest to neon

you can make the adjustments in the ULead Color Picker

OH . . check the color setting for your printer . ..

Cyan +5
Magenta +5
Yellow - 15

I hope this is what your looking for . . .
