When the ICC profiles were made, some important settings changed the actual color output of the Epson printer. Mismatching a profile for the wrong inks can result in as poor a result as mismatching the ICC profile to the printer settings that were used when the ICC profile was made. The driver settings can have as much impact on the results as the inks.
ICC profiles are designed around four variables: The printer model, the color inks, the printing media, the Epson printer driver settings. In order for it to work reliably you must be responsible for the originating color space of the image. It is critical to have a color working space because color management converts an image from one color space to another color space. Our recommended settings for Photoshop:Īt this point, you will have opened an image and it will exist in the color space of Adobe RGB 1998. We realize that users are being encouraged to use ProPhoto RGB, but it is not possible to actually see this huge color gamut - and we believe that you will do yourself a disservice in trying to produce a print that matches the display. sRGB can be displayed, but produces a smaller gamut than can be printed. Pro Photo is too large to display and print. Currently, Adobe RGB 1998 can nearly be displayed in its entirety on both computer displays and color inkjet printers. It is our recommendation that you select a color working space that is closest to what you can actually "see" on a computer display, and what can actually be printed on a modern color inkjet printer. There are many color working spaces that are being recommended.
You must only use profiles designed for your printer model/inks/media combination.
The profiles on our website are divided into ink/printer/media groups. You can download ICC profiles from our website, or you can have custom ICC profiles made. This is based upon the recommendations of Cone Editions Press.
