Introducing the new Custom Printer Profiling Module
in Calibrite Profiler 3.0

For Color Perfectionists who love to print their work at home or in the studio, creating custom printer profiles based on a particular printer and paper type is essential to ensuring the most efficient and optimized results.

Printer heads age, ink lots can vary and the specific type of paper you plan to print on as well as temperature and humidity will all affect the accuracy of your print

There is nothing better than transforming a prized image into a tangible print.

There is nothing quite like holding a final image in your hands.

Creating a custom paper/printer profile with Calibrite PROFILER 3.0 ensures precision, consistency, and quality in your prints.

Here’s why it’s essential:

1. More Precise Profiles:

2. Specific Profiles for Paper/Printer Combinations:

Pre-made profiles may not account for the unique combination of your printer and paper. A custom profile ensures the best possible match for your specific setup.

 

3. Better Matches for Different Sizes or Surfaces:

Different paper sizes and surfaces (e.g., glossy, matte, fine art) require different settings. A custom profile ensures that each type of paper is printed with the correct color and density.

 

4. Iterative patch analysis delivers better profiles using smaller patch sets

PROFILER 3.0 learns from the first patch set and creates the second patch set based on what it learned. The result: a faster, more efficient, more effective process with measurement time and less paper and ink delivering a better custom printer profile.

I’m new to calibration

Welcome!

If you’ve ever struggled to correct color casts, match color from different cameras, or want to print some of your work at home, you’re in the right place. As a creative professional, you know that accurate color is essential for bringing your vision to life. Color management is the art and science of ensuring your colors are consistent and accurate throughout your workflow—from capture to edit to print.

How does Calibrite PROFILER 3.0 provide end-to-end digital colour management?

Start by profiling your display(s)

Did you ever order a print and find it doesn’t match what you see on your monitor?

Whether you edit with multiple displays or use a large monitor at home and a laptop on the road, they all need to match. Voila. Our user-friendly software lets you create custom colour profiles for your display(s), ensuring the colours you see on screen are as accurate as possible, and consistent with your prints or final output.

Then create custom camera profiles

Don’t you hate all the time you spend fiddling to correct a colour casts or set a perfect white balance? No more. Now it takes just seconds.

Colour Perfection starts at capture with a reference target. This ensures that no matter which camera or cameras you are working with under any lighting condition, you have an optimized starting point. When you are ready to edit, Calibrite PROFILER 3.0 helps you create custom camera profiles, ensuring the colours you captured are displayed perfectly and applied consistently.

Love to print?
You’re gonna love custom printer profiles!

Printing can be incredibly rewarding but has its challenges. A custom printer profile eliminates the guesswork.

Ink and paper is expensive, and we don’t want you wasting your time and money hoping that your prints match what you have been editing. Translating screen pixels to ink on paper is a craft to be mastered. What you see on your display is likely much brighter and has a broader gamut than what you can print. The specific paper you choose presents another variable. A Calibrite ColorChecker Studio and our intuitive PROFILER 3.0 software provides a turnkey solution for getting optimal prints based on the precise printer and paper combination you have chosen.

If you’re an experienced Colour Perfectionist looking for detail on how the whole thing works, this next bit is for you.

Standard Controls:

Unleash your inner Colour Perfectionist

Create custom profiles for your display(s) with ease using a preset, then customise the White Point and Luminance. Quickly create your ideal settings and unlock a world of perfectly optimised colour on your display(s).

Take control of your colour with Custom Camera Profiles

Want to ensure the colours of your subject are as perfect as possible, no matter the lighting or camera you’re using? Create and manage custom camera profiles to ensure the colours you capture are accurate and consistent with your final output.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Photograph a ColorChecker Target: Capture an image of a ColorChecker target (Classic format 24 patch or Digital SG patch), under the lighting conditions you’ll be shooting in.
  2. Import the Image into PROFILER 3.0: Open the Camera Calibration module in PROFILER 3.0 and import the image you just captured.
  3. Generate a Custom Profile: Calibrite PROFILER 3.0 will automatically detect the ColorChecker target in your image and generate a custom camera profile. It optimises colour accuracy for your specific camera, lens, and lighting conditions, making it quicker and easier than ever before.
  4. Name and Save Your Profile: Give your profile a descriptive name (e.g., “Camera name – Daylight – Cloudy”) and save it for future use.
  5. Create Multiple Profiles: Create different profiles for each of your cameras, lenses, and lighting conditions, so you can always achieve optimal colour accuracy, no matter the scenario.
  6. Manage Your Profiles: Use the Profile Manager to organise, activate, and share your custom camera profiles.

Scanner profiling

Create ICC reflective scanner profiles using the ColorChecker Digital SG Target together with Calibrite PROFILER software (does not support transparency scanning).

This scanner profiling technology provides excellent results, producing profiles that work exceptionally well for scanning flat artwork. Auto-detection will locate the target automatically making the profile creation process a breeze.

  • Minimise colour differences between original and digital file
  • Improve workflow colour consistency
  • Optimise highlight, shadow, and grey-balance

Take Your Photo Printing to a whole new level

Every inkjet and laser paper is different — and so is every print. To get the most accurate, vibrant, and consistent color, you need to create a custom profile for each paper type you print on.

Some paper manufacturers provide generic profiles for their papers, but they can’t account for the many variables unique to your setup, including:

  • Photo Printers Wear Over Time: Components like inkjet heads or laser imaging units naturally drift in performance as they age, affecting color.
  • Inks and Toners Differ: Variations in batches, especially when using third-party supplies, may introduce shifts in color accuracy.
  • Environmental Factors: Seasonal changes in temperature and humidity can impact print output.

 

Creating your own custom profiles for each paper you print on will:

  • Maximize color accuracy and consistency
  • Compensate for your specific printer’s characteristics in your printing environment
  • Reduce wasted materials and reprints. Ink and paper are expensive, and your time is valuable!
  • Keep your output looking professional, predictable, and true to your vision with absolute consistency

Profile Manager: Organise and share your colour vision

Effortlessly manage all your custom ICC display profiles and custom camera profiles with the Profile Manager. Import and export profiles to share with other Calibrite PROFILER 3.0 users, or delete any presets or profiles you no longer need. Keep your colour workflow organised and efficient.

For the most demanding Colour Perfectionist, there’s even more control than ever before

Ensure your monitor is uniform across the whole display with a 3×3 grid that measures nine sections and reports on their consistency.

Monitor Quick Check:
Quickly check your monitor’s accuracy with a few simple clicks, ensuring your colours are always correct.
