Profiles for Epson Papers

Sissy — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 22:32:57 GMT

I recently noticed on the Epson paper page that they're partnering with Canon in photo papers.
Is Canon or Epson going to or have they already provided profiles for Epson papers. If they're out there I can't find them. Looking for profile for Pro-1000 paper and the Epson Pro Metallic paper.

I don't see one from Canon. I do see their ICC profiles for a few other paper manufacturers (it's in the 'support' page for that printer and then check the downloads for software.)

Sometimes the paper manufacturer also makes a profile for the printer ... so check Epson.

Otherwise... you may have to build your own profile... which means investing in a calibration tool such as an X-Rite i1 Studio. (note, many calibration tools do monitors... but not printers. You'll want to make sure what you consider is able to do printers.)
