Just a tip for everyone so you don't waste products testing colors, I laminate a plain white piece of printer paper and sublimate on that to test my sublimation prints.

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Ooo great idea!!!

[@whatsnyourhouse]

This was a great tip

[@wouter-nataliewytinck-boxt6601]

Same color settings for all products then? Mdf, polyester , ...

[@CorinneBlackstone]

@@wouter-nataliewytinck-boxt6601 yes so far

[@tianacarter2863]

What heat settings/time do you use when testing on the laminated paper?

[@mamalane5897]

Girl, you just fixed what i have been stressing over for an hour! Thank YOU!

[@carlosdejesus822]

Hi Corinne, THANKS A TON for you Video on the settings. I been in a printing nightmare for about 1 1/2 years. I repeatedly asked for help from Cosmo ink and other youtubers but no one ever posted a video or got back to me. I like your style of teaching and explaining settings. I truly would like to thank you.

[@allthingssassee5222]

This by far was the best video I’ve seen on setting colors For sublimation. I was out of commission for a while and had to buy new printers. You made this so easy to do! Thank you!

[@cynthiasuazo2171]

I've had my printer for a year and gave up! Your settings and help worked. Thank you!

[@1-ASMR-LOVE]

Thank you for making this. It will be great to help people because this question is asked so often in sublimation groups. And definitely N'Sync without a doubt. :)

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Yes!!! NSYNC for the win! Lol you are welcome to share the video anywhere. I just hope it helps people!

Wow, thank you so much, I was so depressed that the colors for my new Epson ET 15000 were so off. Now, it looks as good as my Epson F170 sublimation printer.

[@mainaknandy6636]

I have recently got epson F170. but the colors seems kind of off. even in the print preview it seems different colour than my photoshop design. Can you please help me in this? and all these setting to tweak the colours as shown in this tutorial is not showing up in my printer preferences. am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

Great video! I’m having problems with my reds and pinks come out orange. What colors would you change? Yellow?

[@janicepinnock5084]

This was a thorough, very helpful video. Thanks so much! I can't choose between the two. New Kids and NSync. If you'd given me the Backstreet Boys option, it would have been easier. I just liked BSB, I cried because I would never have Justin, Joey or Jordan as my boyfriends.

Thanks. No boy band for me!

[@loishollon7649]

Thank you for such an informative video! Did you use an ICC Epson printer profile? Do I need to have that type of profile to do sublimation printing?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

No. I don’t use an ICC. And no you don’t need to use that for sublimation

[@nedyah23velgo48]

Thank you Thank you Thank you...I just bought my Epson printer and I was not getting the reds. Menudo (Ricki Martin)!! LOL

[@rraley55]

Is it necessary to change color preferences each image you decide to sublimate? Also are you using cricut or silhouette thank you so much

[@CorinneBlackstone]

First I don’t print from design space or silhouette I use Inkscape. Second yes adjusting your colors is typically done for all images.

[@tiffanyrachowicz6426]

Hey I have a question I got my sublimation printer yesterday I got an ecotank 2800 with hippo ink and I went to do a pink pumpkin and it turned out Orange do you have any suggestion on how to fix that?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

You may need to turn the yellow down

[@karenarth2607]

This was very helpful! Thank you! I am having problems with my black. It looks brown any ideas?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Usually when black turns brown it’s because you are overheating it

[@sukhjeetsingh7060]

did you turn on black point compensation?

[@Craftingkim70]

I have the Epson et-2720 and do not have an option in the media type for presentation paper matte. It only has Epson matte... all the other options are some form of glossy, or Epson photo quality ink jet, or envelope. On the printer itself, in the settings it does list presentation matte, but does not list the epson matte. Is there a way to get the presentation paper matte into a choice for settings in the program in which I am printing from?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Try reinstalling your print drivers but honestly it he presentation paper matte should work fine

[@valleyval7]

What kind of paper do you use to print the picture on?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

For sublimation you use sublimation paper. This is done with Starcraft brand

[@loishollon7649]

How often do you clean the ink heads?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

It really depends on how often you print. If I don’t print for two weeks I have to clean them

[@dereknkel]

What heat press do you use in this video? Can you share a link?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

This is the heat press I have www.143vinyl.com/starcraft-heat-press-15x15-clam-shell-mint.html?partner=196113

[@bikerbarbie5670]

How come when I change the paper type to premium presen paper matte it does let me change custom advanced settings when I go to more options

Not sure because mine does. Try reinstalling your drivers

Hi Corrine, my printer Epson 2720 recently did an update and now it is printing the previous print, without me requesting two prints of the same print. I have to turn off the printer to stop this process, I have wasted several sublimation paper. Do you have a recommendation on how I can remove the updated version?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Find the printer software in your control panel and uninstall it

[@meuyrobbins9681]

Hi Corrine, I'm having trouble with my red turning orange. Do you know what i should change? I have a mac.

You need to up the magenta and possibly lower the yellow

Okay. I will give that a try. Thank you!

[@sandralemons2640]

Great video. I have a Epson 7720. I am having a problem with grey. Can you help me ? Thank you

[@CorinneBlackstone]

If your gray is causing issues it may be a contrast issue or something in the cyan/blue area. You’ll need to play around with the settings and test it out to find the right setting

[@sherifisher4491]

So how do you set the black? My black prints are more of a grayish black, not a true dark black.

[@CorinneBlackstone]

You may need to do some of the head and nozzle cleanings and you may need to turn down your brightness. Keep in mind your blacks won’t be dark black until pressed

My epson F170 doesn't have those options and my colors are off 😢 when I print to my regular printer it's perfect but not on my sub printer

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Sublimation prints look dull before you press them but if you don’t have a lot of options you may not have installed your drivers correctly. So go to the epson site and reinstall your drivers

[@mainaknandy6636]

same issue here.

[@Fancy669]

i have a way different interface of the options

[@CorinneBlackstone]

If you have an epson reinstall your drivers

[@winxtwins]

i go to ink scape and cant get this up ugh

[@CorinneBlackstone]

If you mean the printer settings it is likely because you printer drivers have not been installed correctly. Head over to your printer manufacturers website and look up the drivers for your printer and reinstall them

[@joshzuazua3644]

when I'm at file and print on Inkscape I don't get all those options at all, my version looks completely different and less options, any suggestions?

[@CorinneBlackstone]

You need to fully install the drivers for your printer. When you installed it likely that step cut off short. Go to your printer manufacturer website and search for your model drivers.

[@joshzuazua3644]

@CorinneBlackstone I have the most recent driver downloaded on my Mac, I got a epson 8550 printer. I just doubled check & got everything from what's available. This is confusing 😕
