About Izumi Ink

Quality sublimation ink with practical colour support

Izumi sublimation inks are made in Japan and produced to a high standard for sublimation printing. These ICC profiles are provided to help users achieve more consistent results when printing with compatible Epson printers.

Colour output can still vary depending on printer condition, paper, press temperature, press time, substrate coating, print settings and the software being used.

Important: ICC profiles are a colour management tool, not a universal fix. For best results, use the correct paper type, turn off unwanted printer colour correction where applicable, and test press before production.

Choosing a profile

Which profile should I use?

Recommended starting point

In most cases, start with the Colourful ICC profile for your printer series. This is the standard profile intended for general sublimation output.

  • Use Colourful first for normal production.
  • Make a test print and press before customer jobs.
  • Keep your paper, ink and printer settings consistent.

When to use the other profiles

Use Accurate or Saturation only when your production results need specific correction.

  • Accurate may suit more neutral colour output.
  • Saturation may suit specific jobs needing extra colour intensity.
  • Always test on the actual blank or substrate.
