ellis_vener_photography Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 If you go to the webpage for the paper it should tell you which profile to use for that printer. Trickier than I thought!

digitaldog Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 <p>I have to agree, their naming conventions are just awful. <br> Profiles based on differing quality settings? Isn't the case for Epson printers. </p> Author “Color Management for Photographers" & "Photoshop CC Color Management" (pluralsight.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven_clark Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 <p>Mostly because the assumption is you're printing at max quality at all times.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
