ICC Color Profile Service

Accurate, consistent colour output depends on a correctly calibrated ICC (International Color Consortium) profile matched to your specific printer, ink set, and media combination. CMYK Digital Solutions provides ICC profiling services and pre-built profiles for our recommended substrates and ink systems.

What Is an ICC Profile?

An ICC profile is a data file that describes how a specific printer, ink, and media combination reproduces colour. When installed in your RIP software or print driver, it translates your design’s colours into precise ink drop values — eliminating colour casts and ensuring what you see on screen matches what you print.

Our Profiling Service

  • Pre-built profiles for CMYK inks paired with our stocked media brands
  • Custom profiling using spectrophotometer measurement on your specific media
  • Profile installation guidance for Caldera, Onyx, Wasatch, and EFI RIP software
  • Linearisation and calibration checks for aged or serviced printers

Why It Matters for Production

Incorrect profiles lead to ink waste, reprints, and client rejections. A properly built ICC profile reduces ink consumption by 10–20% on eco-solvent and UV machines and eliminates metamerism issues on dye-sublimation outputs. Our technical team can help you profile your exact setup during a site visit or by sending printed test targets to our lab.
