What is a color profile?

A color printer profile is a small software file that describes how ink interacts with a specific type of paper, within a specific printing system. In this case, your printer. Using the right ICC Color Profile for your printer is one of the easiest steps you can take toward better prints. Your print driver will use the profile to adjust the output of ink to match the colors, contrast, and brightness in the picture file. The result is better, more consistent, even amazing prints.

Your printer came with profiles that are specific to the manufacturer’s paper, but all papers are made slightly (or dramatically) different. By using the profiles we made specifically for your printer (along with the correct Printer Driver settings), you’ll get the best possible prints on KODAK PROFESSIONAL Inkjet Photo Paper. If you’re looking for color predictability and consistency, download the profile for your printer and operating system, and get the results you expect – every time.
