Title: 3880 and Legacy Baryta Profile
Post by: mvsoske on February 27, 2017, 11:02:18 am

Is ther an ICC profile for Epson's Legacy Baryta paper on a 3880?  Cannot seem to find any profiles on Epson's website.  I do print in Exhibition Fiber - will that profile work or do I need to make a profile?  I know the 3880 is discontinued but I just cannot find any links on Epson's site.

Thanks for the input.

You're not looking hard enough ;)

the operating system isn't relevant WRT profiles.

Thanks for the reply, but that is the page that frustrates me - still no link to ICC profiles, just a FAQ.  One of them says to download the profiles but from where?  I know how to install, just can't find them on the site.

Google is your friend!

Then I would suggest trying a different browser.  That page I gave you should have a bunch of other things below the horizontal tab/bar including all the profiles.

howardm - Well, I had a "duh" moment.  Yes, it was the browser, or rather it was on my iPad Pro Safari.  On my desktop using Chrome I found all the info I needed.  Thanks for the poke!

If you can't make find the profiles at Epson you should be able to download the Canson Baryta profiles for the 3880 and get nearly identical results.

You could also compare the ICC profiles of the papers that have an identical spectral plot as shown in the attached screengrab. If not use the papers themselves ......
