Printing with ICC Profiles
Quite a while ago I wrote about my colors (orange especially) not printing as expected. My oranges were yellow, etc. I did find a solution by going to the Epson large format forum at yahoo.com. That links to the Epson large format signup page at Yahoo.com.
The solution I found was to use ICC printer profiles. Bill Atkinson developed profiles for the Epson 7600 and Epson 9600 Stylus Pro Printers with either Photographic Dye ink or Multichrome ink. These ICC profiles are available as a free download at Epson's website - click here to to go their web page. Be sure to read his instructions on how to use his profiles. They are awesome and I have very few problems with color.
Epson recently changed their Premium semimatte photo paper from 250 gsm to 260 gsm; I still use the printer profile for the 250 semimatte paper, but I changed the print paper properties for all semimatte drivers from Premium semimatte (250) paper to Premium Semigloss Photo Paper (250) per Epson specification that come shipped with the paper (gotta read those).
