Lack of vibrancy in photos

[MikeWhitworth]

Hi

I have a MX925 which while I am overalll very pleased with The Photos that iprint while of good quality seem to lack a bit of "punch/ vibrancy" . they just seem to lack something ? what am I doing wrong ? .

I use adobe Photoshop elements 6

 I appreciate this is a vague question but i would appreciate sme general advice on setting for the printer

 I usually set it to

Glossy photo. High quality ,

Photoshop manage colours ,

Printer profile I use one that I I had set for me ie an ICC profile adjusted to my ink Foto rite , paper 7day shop .com 270grm glossy .

Rendering st to Perceptual

What am i missing ?

Thanks in advance for any advice given

Mike
