Re: [Digital BW] Re: really stupid question - epson profiles

2009-06-23 by CDTobie

Thank you all for your responses. The profiles are where they  should be 
(HD/Library/ColorSync/Profiles). I restarted Photoshop several times and they 
are still not showing up in my Paper Settings list. I am using matte black and 
the list still shows the default list of papers. I have the most updated driver 
installed.

Any other ideas?

Profiles in your ColorSync folder will not show up in your printer driver's list of available paper types; that simply isn't how it works. To use custom profiles, you must choose the media type in the driver that was used when the custom profile was built (hopefully the developer will tell you what that was), and set the driver to No Color Management (or similar setting), and use the custom profile by choosing it in, or on the way out of, a color managed application instead. Custom profiles use a different workflow from canned profiles provided by the manufacturer in the driver.
