Hello Cathus and thanks for the reply. Perhaps I should have explained in my original posting the reason I am thinking of going down the, let “the printer decided what is best option” is because I have run out of them. I have Paint Shop Pro 5 installed on my HP laptop. It is the only programme I have ever used for image manipulation. I have set the programmes gamma and balanced the screen however, the viewing of images changes each time the screen or indeed I move. I am not working in an area that has a constant and stable light source. The room can be either flooded in daylight or at night by a single ego friendly 100watt equivalent bulb, each of which have their own colour correction to consider so even basic colour editing and manipulation of brightness / contrast can be a problem as when the images are printed what you see is not what you get. I have spent the best part of a year trying to sort this problem so as you can see I have indeed put more than a little bit of work into my efforts but I am still no further forward now than I was when I started. I can’t keep on spending out for Canon paper and inks unless I am getting something back for my investment. Of course the auto print route that I am thinking of is not ideal but a reasonable print is better than no print at all. However I disagree with the comment “Nobody said photography was easy” Film photography is simple to understand its Digital photography that’s a pain in the ***, well for me anyway.
