Today we are taking you through process of doing a colour profile (ICC Profile) to match our sublimation ink colours for any type of printing needed. We do this in FlexiPRINT Software which AM.CO.ZA sells. Watch below for the process and then read on find out why this is so important to do!
What is an ICC Profile? And why is to so an important step to get colour right? Let’s find out:
Colour plays a crucial role in objects, and for those who design items for a living, ensuring colour is accurately applied and displayed is a key aspect of their work and making an income. With most of the steps in the design process now being executed digitally, designers are having to rely more heavily on their computers and monitors to guarantee the accurate display of colours. In order to ensure the highest level of colour accuracy though, designers have to first familiarize themselves with a tiny set of data called ICC Profile, which plays a small yet decisive role in the overall design process.
What is an ICC Profile?
So what is ICC Profile? According to the International Color Consortium (ICC,) ICC profile is a set of data that characterizes a colour input or output device. The profiles describes the colour attributes of a particular device by defining the mapping between the device source and a profile connection space. Simply put, every device that displays colour can be assigned a set of profiles, and these profiles define the colour gamut that will be displayed by these devices.
So how do designers make sure their monitors display the most accurate colour? There are a few steps that they can take to smooth the process. First and foremost, designers need to know the colour gamut of their devices’ operating systems. If the colour gamut of a laptop and monitor are both sRGB, then it means the monitor will display the accurate colour. On the other hand, if a laptop’s colour gamut is sRGB and the monitor’s colour gamut is DCI-P3, then the designer will have to implant the ICC profile of DCI-P3 into the operating system of that computer and set it up in order to guarantee accurate colour display!
Digital images and graphics all have their own ICC profiles. In order to ensure the image that you are about to work on is displayed accurately, designers have to match the ICC profile of the image with the monitor and implement the corresponding ICC profile into the computer’s operating system. Once these steps are completed, you can then rest assured that the colour of the image will be properly displayed.
If doing direct printing, then do an ICC on the finished prints (directly print on vinyl, and then do the ICC on the vinyl). For transfer printing, do the ICC on the final product as well.
At AM.CO.ZA, we sell the best quality Sublimation Ink at the best prices. We use a generic ICC for all our inks because variation on Printer, Printhead, Printing Pass, and Ink Batch is very small, and so most people cannot see the colour difference. If you want to produce the best outcome possible, then the best method is to do an ICC Profile. Simply watch below for the full tutorial:
