	I have a 1.25ghz 15inch powerbook and also an old gateway ev700 monitor hooked up to it. My problem is that when i upload photos from my digital rebel they look fine on my pbook in iphoto but when printing from my pixma ip8500 or even ordering photos online, the print outs are always to dark and the colors a little off. I have tried matching the setting on the ev700 too but the pictures are always very dark and a little off. I was told to mess with colorsync but have had no succsess. any advice?
