How to Print with the ICC Profile

Printing with the ICC profile is very simple to do if you follow these instructions.

Prepare your image in whatever program you like and save it as an uncompressed JPEG of TIFF file, or whatever you can open in a supported graphics program. (PhotoShop v5 and up, CorelDraw v9 and up, and CTP novelty software)

Using CorelDraw 11, Import an image to a new document (or open a saved Corel file), then choose the "Print" command from the menu.

Click the "Miscelaneous" tab.

Check the box "Apply ICC Profile" (shows your installed ArTainium ICC).

Click the "General" tab again, select your sublimation printer, then click the "Properties" button.

Select your custom print mode you saved when you installed the ICC profile. The printer driver may not default to a saved setting so you must check it each time you print.

Note - If this is the first print for the day you should do a "nozzle check" while you are here by clicking either the "Utility" tab or the "Maintenance" tab.

Press "OK" on the printer properties.

After printing the image, let the ink dry for about 2 minutes before pressing. Keep in mind that the image on the paper will look dull and slightly off-color, this is normal if you are using the ICC profile correctly.
