Default Printing from DPP

Having done a lot more printing lately, I find DPP is also way ahead of any other prog that I have for accurate printing.(This may be slightly specific to my Epson printer)

1st in Preferences>colour management , the profile for ones actual printer & paper profile
can be selected in the drop-down menu

2nd print from the RAW file, test print say 70x70mm, which gives you 3 tests across an A4 sheet ON THE PAPER YOU ARE GOING TO USE

3rd any fine tuning of the brightness or colour bias (eg photos of black dogs ) can be altered very fine on the RAW, but this does not affect ability to return to last edit used for web display nor 'as shot' original

4th (Epson) In Colour management, set 'No colour adjustment'

The adjustments in RAW are infinitely more controllable than messing with CMYK sliders etc in the Epson printer control
