THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED! Wow thank you so much, my colours were coming out so so dull and everyone I asked and RUclips videos I watched tried to tell me ‘it is what it is’ kind of approach and that there is no avoiding it but this worked and my colours are so vibrant! I will share this wherever I see someone having a problem with the same thing!!! Thank you so much again! I have been in tears thinking I had just wasted so much on such an expensive printer. I have the Epson 8550! Thank youuuuuu!
You are heave sent for this. I didn't realize my printer options weren't there until last night. I was struggling bad trying to figure it out. Out of all the big RUclips channels . You hit the nail right on the head. I will subscribe to you.
Great video! I have been working on this for a year. I think you’re the only one who figured it out! I was so sick of hearing. Install the driver!! I’m sharing everywhere!
Thank you so much. I've watched so many videos that haven't worked but yours did. I wish I hit on yours first , it would have saved me hours of content. Thanks again.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I spent hours watching videos, trying to figure out why I couldn't get the Color Match setting to show - you are the only person that showed the AirPrint issue which helped me fix it. You are an angel. Now my next issue is that I can't get my Hiippo .icc file to show in the ColorSync lists... time to keep searching for that fix :S
Melinda!!! Thank you for this video! All the other videos are from 2 years ago and none of the settings on the screen matched with what I have on my mac. You explained the why and the how so that I could understand. Doing things just cuz someone said so doesn't really jive with me. I have to understand it to actually learn a process. I feel like you should remake every video out there that is from over a year ago. I will be watching everything you have out there!
This worked for my Epson ET 8550, using a MacBook Air - thank you so much! I now have access to Adobe RGB 2.2, Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, etc... And the print colors are so much better just changing those parameters!!!
this is perfect thank you so much for the step by step theres so many people now a days just with holding information to get you to watch multiple videos to find the answer i love how all the information is all here.. thank you!!
Omg Ty ty Ty I’ve been searching videos up and down for Mac settings and you were the only one I found that explained why I wasn’t getting the option button so ty so much
What do you do if the printer name is not listed in the printer software? I did everything up until you add the second time and found your printer in the software. My printer, the Et-2803, is not listed.
Excellent explanation. Lots of good tips, especially screenshotting your settings. I don't do sublimation but I do have a problem with my Brother Laser printer being too blue. You've given me some ideas on how to tinker with. Thanks!
Melanie Thank You! Your screen was not available from Epson for me. I struggle with my ET2720. They are not the greatest support group, as I told them my laptop did not have access for disc. Now I find most of my problem with lines is the wireless (air) bluetooth....I love your video,Thanks!
If you're on a Mac and you don't see what I showed, you may have the airprint driver installed. If you're on Windows, check out Angie Holden's video that I liked in the description
This an awesome video but I’m still struggling. I don’t understand which cokors I should be changing to adjust and my screen doesn’t look like you. I have a et2800.
@@alisonmullendesigns when your prints don't match your screen you can tweak your Adobe RGB print settings. I recommend checking out a basic color theory video. This one is about Photoshop, but it's a great into color theory and settings ruclips.net/video/EV2O0NnWYVc/видео.htmlsi=_KYdSFYSIgz3TM4l
This was a great video! I do have a question however. When I am saving presets it saves the colors like contrast -4 etc but it keeps going back to Epson vivid etc when I reload the preset. Also when I hit print with RGB it quickly switches back to Epson Vivid then closes and prints. Any ideas?
This also drove me around the bend! The Epson software doesn't respond well to presets saved from some software, like Photoshop. I found that saving presets from the Preview app is what worked. I just opened an image, prepped the print job with my settings and saved my preset from there. I have 3 Epson printers, two are sublimation. I had to make separate presets for each sub printer. I named them to match the printer model. Good luck!
Macs seem to struggle with actually using the drivers you just installed unless you are very deliberate about it. Windows does a much better job in this area.
Are tweeking whats printing? I bought etsy files that dont print has they should. Thats in my print settings? They are always to dark not always color being off.
Thank you so much!!! This really helped me fix mine! If using the hiipoo brand ink, do you recommend doing the icc download at all? I couldn’t find my printer and downloaded a similar one but I hate how the colors are coming out. I don’t know if I just did something wrong when downloading. What’s your opinion on that?
I'm so happy this helped you. When I made this video I tested the Hiipoo icc for my model and even a few other printer models. I was left wondering if the Hiipoo folks are color challenged! I found I had the best results with the Adobe RGB profile. I know some folks prefer the Epson Vivid settings, but for me they were a little too over the top. I tweaked the Adobe RGB profile in the print dialog color settings to bump up saturation and brightness, and reduce yellow a little bit. I use the same settings on my new ET-15000, which also has Hiipoo ink. The results between the two printers have been very consistent.

I swear, I was this close to throwing out my printer because it never managed to get the colors right. YOUR method worked. Thank you!

You're welcome! It should work for most Epson printers with Macs, sublimation or otherwise.

I should add you should delete all presets you already made and start fresh from Preview.
This is exactly what I do even on windows. Good to know it works on Mac also.

Fixing a wrong driver and/or doing color correction might help.
