ok, im starting over again...
So i know that one of the things i got to do is get everything "working togther" - of course i want to use my new best friend "CS3" and that involves making sure my camera, monitor, CS3 and the printer get along in terms of color management. Now the 1st real issue is adobe 1998 or sRGB. Listen to Adobe and the CS3 gurus and they tell ya let PhotoShop manage the colors and Adobe 1998 is preference of choice. Smugmug (they host my pics ) tells ya: yeah 'ok' but Smugmug and most online service print in sRGB. So, im 'ok' with leaving my cam in sRGB, and leaving photoshop in sRGB and recalibrating the iMac . I do like to print but I never really do it as much as I think I will. So, i hope my choice to keep everything in sRGB is the right one. With the printer it gets a little more difficult, for me at least.
questions:
1) how important to use ICC profiles or let myprinter manage the colors?
if im using sRGB, does that impact at all on my decision?
2) my printer is not new " canon i9900 " will there be ICC profiles for that or is this ICC a "new thing"? ( im not well read on printers )
3) what if in 6 mos i decide to Print more of my stuff and go to adobe 1998 - what happens to all the images i worked on in sRGB?
