Title: standard paperprofiles Epson 7880
Post by: tongelsing on December 03, 2008, 04:42:48 pm
Recently I purchased an Epson 7880. I have calibrated the whole chain and everything is working fine and I’m very satisfied with the results.
But where can I find the standard Epson paperprofiles on my computer? (MacBookPro OX10.4.11) I need those profiles for sending them to a client so he can softproof by himself.

They are not on the usual places “library/colorync/profiles” and “library/printers/epson/inktjetprinter/iccprofiles/Pro9880_7880.profiles”. This last pad gives a plugin as a result.

I can apply the paperprofiles and see them within the printdialog of CS3.

Any suggestions?

You can find any installed ICC profile from within the ColorSync utility.

You'll see that Epson installs them in a package in the Library (for example, Library>Printers>EPSON>InketPrinter>ICCProfiles?Pro38.profiles/Contents/Resc)

I did already found those packages but how can I isolate the individual icm-profiles from it. As I wrote by that path I end up with a plugin and not with individual profiles.

You need to open the package (right click, Show Package contents). Look inside the resource folder.
