Hello.

I'm trying to print out some of my coloured pages, but they're coming out a lot darker and more saturated than they should be. I've got my display set up properly and the colours turn out fine when clients print them professionally, but through my printer they're all wrong.

Any thoughts / tips?

sure..use a printer calibrating tool.
its good that you made it with your display but when you want to print from home with a normal printer you should calibrate it too.

here ther spyder with a tool for prints: http://www.amazon.com/ColorVision-Pr...lp_edpp_img_in

just as a example

Thanks, buddy!

Anyone know of a way that doesn't require a $500 piece of kit?

If you have a Mac you can calibrate using a print setup but I forget how it works. It's called Colorsync.
