I want an ICC profile done for my printer Ricoh SG3110DN with non Sawgrass inks.

This might be a daft question. The ones I find on google who do ICC profiles can I use them for a profile for sublimation ink or is there a specific type of profile for that. I realise all profiles are different but is the same type of profile relevant to sublimation ink as 'normal' ink?

No the inks are different. You can get generic profiles for your printer and sub ink, but for accuracy, you want a custom profile made. Moderator Paul on here is your man. Decide on your paper, ink and printer, he will send you some colour charts to print. Use Adobe Color Print Utility to print the sheets out.

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I meant getting a custom profile. Didn't explain myself well. I'll check on google again.

I did contact Paul but having heard nothing back thought maybe he's too busy or something.

I give him a poke every 7 days when I'm left waiting!

Thanks for the replies GoonerGary. I think if someone doesn't reply when I contact them I'd rather go elsewhere.

Mags thanks very much for the offer, I found someone on google who I've signed up with and paid but if it doesn't work out that would be great if I could contact you regarding the profile.

Not sure why you found someone on t'internet when Mags already offered? Ken really knows what he's talking about. Make sure whoever you're using understands sublimation.

Maybe because I had signed up with someone else before I saw Mags message
