Re: Epson ET-2600 & ICC Profile Help

Post by bubbleimages »

Hi,

We are using A5 film for printing our 3D phone cases and have just changed over from Ricoh 3110DN to the Epson ET-2600 with Sawgrass Artainium inks on MAC.

The ICC sent over from the supplier was too light compared to the perfect results we were getting with Ricoh, we then paid for an ICC from CityInk and the colours are getting there, but print looks a tad dull.

Anyone able to offer some help at all? We've been down on phone covers for over a week now. Thanks in advance.

I have 3 profiles for the ET-2600, ours had to go back and we've replaced with a different model. PM me your email addy and I'll send over for you. I'm assuming we're using same inks here.....uhm, maybe not...send me message.

If you need any cases shipping out in the meantime I'm happy to help, we offer a full drop shipping service.

Do normal profile files work on Mac or are they different?

Which printer did you replace it with Justin? My new Epson WF printer has been put on probation.

Thanks Justin, profiles have got us back up and running for this weekend, but colours still not 100%.

Will keep a look out for more ICC profiles to test out, if anyone out there has any we can test with Artainium inks then do drop a PM.

Have a good weekend.

Hi Justin,

I am in dire need for the the ICC profiles for the ET-2600. I've been running the Epson T3270, but ran out of roll film. I need to print sheet and all I have is the Epston ET 2600 and P800.

Please let me know at your earliest convenience if you can help.

Thanks,

Gary

What inkset are you running? This will only help you if you are using same inks, even then you really need a specific profile for your printer.

Hi Justin, I have Sawgrass & Sensient Inks. I can also purchase the same ink just so I can use the profile.

Thanks,

Gary

Which inks were you running in the P800? I toyed with getting one of those but have read the pizza wheel issue is still apparent?

Sensient. What do you mean by "the pizza wheel issue"?

Pizza wheel is a massive Epson problem, I'm yet to see an Epson without it. Quick Google search tells you everything and how widespread this is. It's the little metal wheels that the printer uses to keep the paper straight as it pulls it through. When you print at a high res and the printer puts lots of ink down, especially on thicker paper, the little wheels imprint on the print.
