ICC Ink Profiles for Dell printers by City Ink Express

What is an ICC Profile?

Have you ever considered changing your Dell printer drivers colour settings – then you need a color profile. ICC color Profiles are look-up tables that describe the properties of a color space. A profile will change the properties of a color space that your Dell printer prints.

For example, your Dell printer will have the information to print a picture of the sky ‘blue’ but not the exact shade you can see on your monitor. A Dell printer profile will match the shade you see on your monitor to the exact shade of blue that it prints out. A printer profile controls your color management.

Using a profile for your Dell printer is very easy. You will follow our instructions on how to print a color chart using your Dell printer’s standard settings. Once you’ve printed this and sent it to us we will feed your colour chart through our i-sis color calibration machine. This will create a unique colour profile for your Dell printer. We will then email this to you with instructions on how to apply it when printing.

We have multiple photo shop tutorials, such as how to use your Dell printer profile in cs3,cs4,cs5 and cs6. In summary, all you will have to do when you go to ‘Print’ your image in photoshop is select the icc colour profile we have sent you from a printer profile dropdown menu. Printer profiles are essential to get the best quality colours from your Dell printer.
