Printing a duotone image


I have created some duotone images in Photoshop CS and I'm using an Epson 2200 printer. When I try to print, the image comes out with a weird green cast. I've set the print preference to "separation" as suggested on Epson's website, but to no avail. Also, the photo is saved as a psd file, if that makes any difference. Can anyone offer advice on how to print so the photo looks like it does on my computer? Thanks!

  I'm not sure that I understand, but it does not sound like you want color seperations, I think that may be the problem. Try something in the range of "composite print" (I'm not sure what it will be called in your software). But seps are basicly for making printing plates, and I don't think that is what you want.

  Even though it's a duotone, make sure you set the mode to RGB before printing....

  Thanks! Converting to RGB worked. The prints look great!
