Epson ET-8550 printer profiling Making custom ICC printer profiles with a i1Studio spectrophotometer

Keith Cooper looks at making custom ICC paper profiles for the Epson EcoTank ET-8550 A3+ printer.

Printer profiles are an important part of getting good prints from the 8550

The profiles are made using the X-Rite i1Studio (CCStudio) spectrophotometer, by printing and measuring test targets.

There are several detailed reviews looking at the i1Studio device and software

Note that as of July 2021 the i1Studio is now sold under the Calibrite brand as CCStudio.
It is exactly the same device and software
