Printer profile for non canon paper

Is there a list of profiles for Epson, Kodak, OfficeMax, etc photo papers?

You would get custom profiles from the paper manufacturer website, or, if they don't have custom profiles the recommended Canon profiles to use (I am assuming you are using a Canon printer.)

  • Does anyone know where to find printer profiles for Epson paper with MG6200 printer using Lightroom?

    Does anyone know where to find printer profiles for Epson paper with MG6200 printer for use in LightRoom5?

    Epsnm should provide recommended settings (I.e. Which Canon paper type to select). They may also have profiles on their site.

  • Printer Profiles for Epson R260

    I need to download UCC Printer Profiles for my Epson 260.
    But the website doesn't list any.
    It does show profiles for the R2200.
    Where are they?

    Geoff & Jao,
    Evidently Epson does not generate ICC Profiles for the R260, just for the high-end printers like the R2200.
    The Epson R260 driver has selections for all kinds of papers and different levels of preset quality and manual settings.
    I have tested a lot of them.
    Using Lightroom and Printer-managed color, all pictures are dull and lack-luster.
    However, Lightroom has a profile for the R260 series; and with Epson driver set for ICC, pictures are good as PSE5 using ColorMatch RGB and Qimage with Epson drivers. I am using plain Photo Glossy paper and I don't know how the Lightroom profile knows which paper I'm using.
    I searched in my PC for /Library/Colorsync/Profile and didn't find it. Do you know where it is in a PC?
    Jao says to turn off color management in the driver. OFF seems to be bad; choosing ICC seems to be good.

  • I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go.

    I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go. The printer does'nt show up. I'm fairly new to the Mac, after switching from windows. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

    Hold down the option key and select
     ▹ System Information...
    from the menu bar. In the window that opens, select
    Hardware ▹ USB
    from the list on the left. On the right you should now see a list of all connected USB devices, as well as some built-in components. Is the device shown?

  • Lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ?

    How or where can I get the lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ? In effect he is not available in my list of correction lens so my lightroom is up to date apparently :/
    Thanks in advance for answer.

    There are two types of Lens profiles - raw and JPEG. It looks like you are trying to process a JPEG image and Adobe has only provided a raw lens profile for the 18-135mm IS STM lens.
    You have four options:
    1) Check for available lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader. I checked and a JPEG lens profile is NOT available for the 18-135mm lens.
    2) Follow the procedure outlined by Steve Sprengel in this post:
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lr_5_lens_profile_not_applied_for_jp g_captures_only_for_raw_captures
    More detailed instructions here for a Pentax lens example:
    http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/post-processing-articles/176761-creating-adobe-lens-cor rection-profiles-jpgs-raw-ones.html
    This allows using the available raw lens profile with JPEG images. To my knowledge Canon DSLR cameras do not apply distortion correction to JPEG images, so the raw profile should work well. You can check this by shooting raw+JPEG and comparing the two images inside LR
    3) Create you own lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Creator. (A complicated process, but it can be done!).
    4) Start shooting in raw mode or raw + JPEG mode, which will allow you to extract the most benefit from LR's processing controls.

  • HT3771 Installing non Canon printer profiles for ix4000 printer

    Printing has been a disaster since either OS10.6. or manufacturers started to cater for multi ink printers, about the same time 18 months ago.
    Canon best quality glossy photopaper pro was always bad, biassed to yellow green. HP Premium Plus was good in its old fomulation, as was Ilford Classic Pearl.
    Now ALL papers have the bias to yellow green (though not sufficently consistent to correct in print dialogue). Even the new Ilford Gallerie smooth pearl using their profile <n_IGSPP11_CANiX4000_PPPGn.icc>
    I am now trying the new HP paper Premium Plus Photo Glossy 300gsm with better results as far as print density goes, but still a green-yellow bias.
    I thought I might be able to download an HP profile eg <HP_CP_series_High_Gloss_photo_best.icc>, but I can't find any way to install it; doesn't behave like the Ilford ones in the Colorsynch profile folder.
    Anyone have any ideas on EITHER installing an HP profile (and which one would suit 3-colour+black printer to use with canon printer) OR correcting the colour bias consistently please?
    PS I live too far in the sticks to turn to shops & do (or rather did & hope to re-start) too much printing for camera club comps, greetings cards and local sales

    Allan,
    First questions...is your monitor hardware calibrated? How is the quality of other printing (from Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Acrobat, etc.)?
    I'm thinking that if this is a problem specific to printing from the Avery software, you should speak with Avery and ask how you should set up your files for printing through their software.

  • Copying or installing paper specific colorsync profiles for my canon ip4300

    I have the specific colorsync profiles for the various types of paper loaded for my canon IP4300 on one of my imacs that i moved upstairs. I have one of the new 2.8 C2D 24inch imacs now connected and i want to print from it to the Canon. the problem is that i do not recall how i got the profiles onto the other mac. i want to copy the profiles and get them onto the new imac. I cannot seem to find them after looking at EVERY library file on the system and searching for the profile names etc. Please help me know where to look and how i can get them moved over or get the profiles from somewhere and install them. they are not on the disc that came with the printer.
    As a side i know i can print across the network but it requires that i go up and down the stairs and across the house to check output.

    Normally, they would be in the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder. They may also have been installed in the Profiles folder of your user account, but not as likely.
    Sometimes though, they are buried in with the printer drivers themselves. As an example, the Epson 4000 we use copied all of the profiles it came with into the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder. We didn't want to use the provided profiles, so we deleted all of them. To our surprise, they all continued to show up in the lists of profiles. Turned out they were also in a package file named SPro4000.plugin in the /Library/Printers/EPSON/ folder.
    Have you contacted Canon to see if they could help you locate them?

  • Printer profile for Canon inkjet

    I am having a bit of trouble getting my printer to render colours satisfactorily.
    My printer is a Canon Pixma iP 3600 but I am not sure which settings give optimum results from Illustrator RGB files.
    1) Should I specify a colour profile for Illustrator or is Emulate Adobe Illustrator o.k.?
    2) Is there anything else I should do if I use Indesign for output?
    3) When I go to print, Color Management in the Print dialogue gives me various Printer Profile options, including:
    Does anyone know which of these Canon  iP3600 series profiles works (or is supposed to work) best? (I have had dismal results using Adobe RGB and can find nothing about profiles in the printer handbook. For example, I don’t know the difference between MP2, PR1, PR2 etc.)
    As for Rendering Intent, it is important in this case that colours reproduce as accurately as the printer will allow. My instinct tells me to use Absolute Colorimetric because I have adjusted the colours in my files very carefully.

    Steve,
    Have you tried a custom RGB test sheet (maybe with notes on settings written into it for each combination) and a waste of raw materials?

    Hola Gustavo,
    your task is for me not quite clear. I can see two scenarios:
    a) Calibrate the press for  ISONewspaper26v4 ink (your standard process) on salmon colored paper.
        Print the target by press on this paper, measure and build the profile. There is no problem so far.
        But preparing CMYK data with this profile for printing by press requires a very complicated gamut
        compression, becauses the gamut of the actual process on salmon paper is small and excentric
        in Lab. As mentioned in my previous post.
    b) Simulate the appearance of press prints on salmon paper, disregarding the salmon color by profiles.
        This shall be done in your case by a toner printer.
        The toner printer has to be calibrated with white paper. As a result one gets a valid Printer Profile.
        The proof printing happens for a CMYK file, for instance a PDF/X-1a file so:
        Input profile: ISONewspaper26v4
        Output profile: Printer Profile
        Printed on salmon paper!
        The printer profiling converts the toner printer into a more or less reliable proof printer. This has nothing
        to do with colored paper.

  • Printer profiles for Canon i950

    Hi,
    I am using Mac Pro, OSX 10.5.3, CS3, with a Canoni950 printer. In attempting to print CD labels using Avery Click N Build 3D software, I have also historically been unable to find the printer profile that is compatible with my set up. Even after serious color correction episodes I can never get a print that represents the truer colors on the monitor, especially the Reds. Can someone please help me with the profiles? Also, am I supposed to check the Allow Photoshop to determine colors or the printer? Thank you.

  • Anyone working on a profile for the Canon EF 16-35mm 2.8 Mk11 lens?

    Is anyone working on a profile for this very popular Pro Canon lens?

    Is there a date on ACR6.1
    I'm brand new to this having jumped from CS2 to CS5 but have printed out the charts and am swotting up.  MY bodies are aging (the cameras that is but...) and tend to be ignored as everyone is assumed to buy the latest in hi-tech land.  My16-35 will be first on the tripod but it is the original Mk .   I love the lens but people on the ends of line-ups don't benefit in the waistline area:  Most of my work there's no time to fix such things - but faster computers mean that shooting in RAW can actually save time as files just need a quick bash in converter- colour and lens profiling are just wonderful aids - much more exciting than content aware watermark remover in my opinion.

  • Lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens?

    How or where can I get the lens correction profile for the new Canon STM lenses?

    I see that lens listed in the release notes for the final Lightroom 4.2 update that just came out a few hours ago, so it looks like the answer is to download the update.

  • Removing Printer Profiles for use in PS CS3

    I'm setting up my work flow using PS to manage printing. I have lots of printer profiles accumulated over the years and would like to weed them out. How can I do that? Where are they located in the files? I'm using OS 10.5.2.
    Thanks.

    They're generally located in your Library>ColorSync>Profiles folder, but some are also in the same folder under your User name. Because I make custom profiles for both myself and others, not only inkjets but at least twenty different printing houses and a couple of photo labs here in lo-cal, I have hundreds. What I do is make a new folder called Profiles Disabled and move all the unwanted profiles to that folder. I'm not getting rid of them permanently but getting them out of sight as far as Ps is concerned.

  • RG1 printing format for A4 size paper with all records

    RG1 register print not showing all details (Qty.) through J2i6 and no proper printing format for A4 size.
    Is there any std. printing format for RG1 ?
    Please give the std. ready format for RG1....
    THANKS.

    Your subject title mentions A4 sized paper, the body mentions US Letter size.
    Assuming you want one half of a letter-size for each page, create the page size as portrait, 5.5" wide, 8.5" tall.
    Thread in logical order, page 1 through...how many ever pages. You should have a page count evenly divisible by 4.
    Export to PDF as normal...single pages.
    Open the PDF in Acrobat or Reader, print the booklet from it.
