image file color profile for printing on vinyl sticker paper with ip8720

From what I’ve read I think the ideal color profile is probably GRACoL, but possibly SWOP 3 or 5. ?

I’m talking about my image file color profile. Using a Canon iP8720 inkjet printer output onto vinyl sticker paper.

thanks

Hi ThingKing.Thanks for contributing to the Canon Community. I see you need a color profile for the paper you are using.

I apologize. Vinyl sticker paper or any kind of vinyl paper is not recommended for the PIXMA iP8720. The driver for this printer provides color profiles for the Canon papers mentioned in the following section of the printer's manual.
https://ij.manual.canon/ij/webmanual/Manual/W/iP8700%20series/EN/BG/bg-loading1600.html

Since we do not test the printer with vinyl paper, we cannot recommend a particular profile over another. We do not have that information.

I recommend contacting the paper manufacturer. You can let them know that you have a Canon iP8720 and see if they have a color profile for you.

I must warn that we do not know how the printer will work with vinyl paper or if it can cause any kind of damage.

Thanks again.
