<title>How do I calibrate my printer?</title>

There are two ways to profile a printer device:

<list>
 <item>Using a photospectrometer device like the Pantone ColorMunki</item>
 <item>Downloading a printing a reference file from a color company</item>
 </list>

Using a color company to generate a printer profile is usually the
 cheapest option if you only have one or two different paper types.
 By downloading the reference chart from the companies website you
 can then send them back the print in a padded envelope where they
 will scan the paper, generate the profile and email you back an
 accurate ICC profile.
 
 
 Using an expensive device such as a ColorMunki works out cheaper only
 if you are profiling a large number of ink sets or paper types.

<note style="tip">
 
 If you change your ink supplier, make sure you recalibrate the printer!
