william_carter1 Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 See this thread elsewhere: http://www.robgalbraith.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=214522&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1 About halfway down, someone gives a link for downloading the profiles.

mark lucas Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Stefan, After lots of investigation I have come to the conclusion that paper profiles are not included with the R800 in Europe - does anybody know why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christopher_newkumet Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Profiles for Epson papers come with the US versions of this printer and, as mentioned in the above post, are available online. I have a related question. I'm a rank amatuer when it comes to using ICC profiles, so please be kind. I like the Ilford Smooth Pearl paper, but there's no profile available on the Ilford Website for the R800. Does anyone know if the profiles on the Ilford site for the other Epson printers that use UltraChrome inks -- I think the 6700 and another one -- would work on the R800?

howard_cubell2 Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 The Epson 7600 profiles will NOT work with the R800. With the Ilford Pearl paper, I would try the ICC profile for the Epson Premium Lusrer paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry n. Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Christopher Did you have luck with any profile and the Ilford paper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingston_chang1 Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I have downloaded the EPSON R800 profiles on the link described above. But how can I make use of it? Or how to install it? This is the first printer I've ever bought and I don't know how to use the downloaded profiles to improve quality. Thanks for helping me out.
