Title: Epson Standard Printer Profiles
Post by: [email protected] on March 23, 2024, 04:39:03 pm

I have a small roll of Epson Doubleweight Matte Paper and an Epson SureColor P7000 printer with the Epson Print Driver v12.62 installed.
I am running an iMac with MacOS 13.3 Ventura.
When I wanted to make a test print the epson profile wasn't in the list.  When I googled the profile Epson says it is included in the standard print driver.

So where is it?

thanks,
Bill

It appears that Epson do not supply a profile.  This from some years ago.  Not a P7000 but the P6000 is the same family and released around the same time.

Thanks Mike,

I read the referenced thread and frankly am a little surprised at the fuzziness of Epson's setup.  In any case, it was only for testing and setup.  Luckily I have all the equipment to make my own printer profiles and I will probably not use double weight Matte anyway.  It just came with the printer and I just wanted to see what some of my images looked like on it.  I generally use one of the Epson Legacy papers or one from Moab.

Just for reference, I've been away from printing and my studio in general for sometime due to health reasons and I'm starting to get back to what I love - PRINTS!

Thanks again,

Can't comment on your particular printer but with my P900, I run the Epson Media Installer and it installs all the Epson paper profiles.

This may or may not help.

Best,

Eric
