Title: Epson Legacy Paper ICC Profiles for Epson 3800 Printer
Post by: rwyrick on April 13, 2016, 09:17:01 am

I am interested in trying the new Epson Legacy papers on my Epson Stylus Pro 3800 printer.  However, I have not been able to locate any ICC profiles for the 3800.  Does anyone know where I might download profiles for this printer and these papers?  Also why hasn't Epson provided profiles for the 3800?

Since the 3800 is no longer in production, it's very unlikely Epson would build and supply one. And no, using a 3880 profile isn't going to work well.

As Andrew said, the 3800 has been OOP for something like 4-5 years at this point and I'd never expect them to supply profiles for their newest papers.

Per the other question, you can/should try the Canson 3800 profiles.
