Will things going darker when we actually print out? I work on a dark emotion of a graphics design. I use curve and black brush on that piece to make it darker. It looks fine on the screen. But when I print it out, most of the part are black color. Doesnt looks as what I did in the screen.
Do we suppose to make our design brighter for printing? Or that printer is crap? any ideas?
