I made a photo of (colored) pills on a white paper, opened the jpeg file in gimp in order to print it. Problem: The white paper got blue and the original colors of the pills are distorted.
I tried a numer of option of my camera, read the GIMP manual about white balancing, I experimented hours with various GIMP options to modify colors - in vain. I did not understand what to do. Also I went through the options of my HP Laserjet printer; I didn’t find a clue.
Here is the jpeg file of the photo:
That is the foto of the printout:
The distortion of colors is so much that the colors of the tablets cannot be recognised any more.
The chain from 1.camera to 2.GIMP and to 3.HP Laserjet printer with a multitude of options in 1, 2 and 3 is too complex for my simple brain.
What can I do?
