What did you make the posters in? If you're making them in Photoshop or any other decent graphics application try converting the colour mode of the images to CYMK. You'll get a nearer match to what actually comes out of the printer. Green isn't great when it comes to printing.

I work in a print shop, I know these things ;)

It's not that easy being green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves.
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold...
or something much more colorful like that.

It's not easy being green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ord'nary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
or stars in the sky.

But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain,
or tall like a tree.

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.


Besing serious for a sec. Have you tried pissing about with your printers colour management options?

Or you could just follow my perfectly reasonable advice and save breaking your printer ;)

Yes, I believe we all have that particular model.

tut, tut.... no technical knowledge whatsoever there, Hunter.

It's CLAP THUMP BOOM GROAN THUMP, not THUMP CLAP GROAN THUMP CLAP BOOM. Depending on the weight of the sledgehammer, of course.

Sounds like the Epson my family has at home. The damn thing has a startup cycle that takes about a minute and doesn't seem to accomplish anything. :P At least my old HP Deskjet 694 starts up without any of that, even if its print quality is poorer.

i've got a nice hp 1200 all in one thing... it does weird things at startup as well, and when its printing, the movement of the cartridge resonates with my desk, aming it sway as well...

Heh, you need to get a cartridge of flourescent ink ;) You can buy them at specialist ink stores, and, I think, WHSmith, but they aren't cheap, and, of course, you have to hope they do one that fits your printer.
