Color Profiles for Beginners

Profiles are quite important to getting good prints, especially with the variety of papers available and pigmented inks are far more finicky than dye inks. With digital printing becoming so popular and commonplace and with the advances being made in digital printing in the last few years, profiles are becoming quite readily available. Most of the major paper manufacturers have profiles available on their websites for their media with different printers. Epson also has profiles on their website for some of their papers. These manufacturer profiles are generally good but not as good as custom profiles. If you do some searching around on the net you can find better ones available that people have made.

Making your own profiles is good as you''ll get decent results from scanner based profiles. But to get really top notch results you need to use a spectrophotometer which reads the prints directly and is much more accurate than a scanner. NO! I'm not saying you need to run out and buy one.
