The colors that have been printed out lack the saturation and punch of the scanned neg/slide. Bright blues look washed out, sometimes even too light. I have tried calibrating the monitor with Adobe Gamma correction, but still to no avail... Skin tones are also too light and sometimes look a little too washed out..
I have just mucked around with viewing the image in CMYK, and it is much closer to matching the final printed output. I might be doing something wrong by selecting sRGB on the printer input...hmm...*scratchin head*.... looks like its time to start wasting a few sheets of paper..
