Please help - icc profiles? What on earth is this

[damo6886]

Hi can i ask where you got that profile from for the sg2100n? I have the same printer and cant get the colours to match so think i need the profile or to set my printer up correctly.im new to this and bought this printer before finding out its not that good for sublimation also it came as a package with ink(probably cheap) the ink transfers well and the colours are good but they just dont match what is on my screen so thought id need a profile? Thanks and sorry for being a newb

You need to get one made, as the ICC is dependant on your printer, ink and paper- as well as what you're printing to - someone else's ICC won't be right for you. Even two printers of the same model won't print exactly the same.

Whilst thats true Sawgras have gotton away with it for years, as have every other printer manufacturer in the world , always best to have a custom profile as your paper ink printer combination probably is different to others
