I just went to get some prints done at Target, nothing special. At first I thought it was an overall color temperature issue - but the whites look perfectly white, it's just the skin tones that are abnormally warm to the point where it looks like color banding is happening? Very weird to describe. Is it just a color calibration issue between my machine and the printer?
