Colour cast when printing

[Charlie]

I'd appreciate a steer if anyone can help. I started with Photoshop
Elements about 6 months back and got some good prints. I thought I'd
try Photoshop CS, and the prints suddenly emerged with a distinct green
colour cast (whether I printed from within Elements or from CS). I've
uninstalled CS, but the colour cast is still there on using elements.
The images are fine on the screen, it's only when printed that I have
the problem, and Photoshop is the only program that has this effect, so
I don't think it's to do with the printer.

Is it possible that CS has changed a setting, affecting elements as
well? If so, any ideas how to get out of it?

If it's at all relevant I'm working on a Toshiba laptop and printing
with an HP photosmart. I haven't consciously changed any settings since
it was all working properly!

Try this:

(File ->) Print with preview, and have photoshop select your colors for you.

Thanks, I'll give it a try

print with preview is a good start but there are so many variables you
need to work with. first, printer/paper profile in 2 places, rendering
intent, and no color management in the printer icc profile.

you might try a photoshop cs book for color management to view all the
variables,
