Hi
Apart from Paul is there any other member that could do an ICC profile.

Thanks Bob

There are several of us on here with the kit to make them.

I'm a little intrigued by the process for producing an icc for a dyesub printer - I know that with a colormunki one can produce profiles for various bits of kit, depending upon which particular colormunki that one has. That's straightforward enough for a normal printer, but somewhat more complex for a dyesub printer?

The colormunki needs two prints to come up with a profile, to be meaningful they'd have to be pressed onto the relevant substrate, and they're A4 sized as I recall - bit difficult to do that on a mug!

I've no need to produce profiles for our dyesub printer as it's producing very good images, but have to say that I'm curious...

I used A Datacolor SyderPrint using my template in Photoshop positioned the colour chart on to 2 mugs then scan when done.
I use a Epson 1500w with inktec, out of box (no icc used) colours good but too light.
Suppliers icc too dark and wrong.
Inktec profile very good slight difference but near perfect.
Calibrated profile spot on.

mags1892 also does profiles if I'm not wrong

With a Munki I use the MDF panels for the profile. Mugs can vary in shade of white so works well. All other things have their own profile.

Use a Spyder here - use cheap (not chromaluxe) white aluminium to cover everything that is hard/glossy, and then do a specific profile for each fabric we print. Our lampshade fabric being the most (pure/bright) white, so we use this for fabric products we don't haven't got profiles made for yet.

To be accurate you need a good meauring device like a i1pro syder doesnt measure with enough bandwidtg its desifned for monirors. I1 measures every 10 nanometres.
