    When you select the layout drop down menu you have a color option. I don't have anything that gives a color option. I've reinstalled the printer and it hasn't changed. I'm running Big Sur 11.5. Thank you for any help or insight.

    • @VIPCustomPrints
      @VIPCustomPrints  3 роки тому

      U should be able to use Big Sur … I’m running an older version… (Mojave ) did u make sure your not using the air print installer? That throws everything off… also try one more time and delete all the drivers on your Mac.. then follow the steps again and don’t use the air print installer

    I do not have the option for the IJ Printer on my EPSON 8550, and when I choose the Cosmos one, it's too blue. I'm ready to pull my hair out to get a good color profile.

    • @VIPCustomPrints
      @VIPCustomPrints  2 роки тому

      Oh wow.. try again going to the Epson site and download the correct drivers for that particular printer. that is actually one of the new printers but it still should come with the IJ07 print profile

    Why aren't you using the Cosmos Ink color profile that they give you when you purchase their inks? I'm asking to figure out if the Epson profile vs theirs is best. Thank you :)

    HI could you direct me to your video on your sublimation setting in presets you mentioned? Thank so much. I found this so useful. Also do you have any advice on how to do a black and white (yes I know no white for sublimation - but its a black and white image ....blacks/grey picture I want to use and it is giving me colors like purple/green/blue on my images when I sublimate onto a 100% white poly t-shirt. Thank you so much!!!

    • @VIPCustomPrints

      Try the print head cleaning…personally I would just use vinyl for a white tshirt with a black logo…black sublimation ink will never be pure black… it’s very hard getting a pure black on poly

      I actually bought the template for an 11 ounce mug on Etsy. I think the cost was about $1.50 -$2.00 for the template

      I use both… using quality just lays down a little bit more ink but both still come out good… usually I use the Quality setting..that’s what I use for deep rich color..

      Hey there… please re download the correct drivers from the epson website and follow my instructions… Then you should have the choice of
      Premium presentation matte option … if not choose plain paper but on the printer choose Premium presentation matte.. before the printer starts printing it will ask you which printer preferences just choose printer settings

      Wow ok.. maybe you should try a print head cleaning to make sure The print head is probably pushing out the ink… if it isn’t you may need to do a few print head cleanings… maybe even a purge file print
