Do you happen to have a video talking about how to get the right colors on a converted Epson eco-tank?
Thank You Sister for solving my 4 years problem in Sublimation Printing.
Happy to help
i think you just saved my life. Thank you for this video.
Glad I could help!
I am having the blue issue on my printer but I have a converter ET2800. Do you have any recommendations for that one?
I'm having the same issue as well. Did you ever figure it out?
Is there a way to fix this issue on a converted Epson printer? I just started doing sublimation with the ET-2720 and I’m having the same issue. Greens are coming out blue. Please help 😢
Did you find the problem?
I dont have silotte studio how do I go back to printer settings? Im on a mac
hi I don't have those options what am I missing about the driver is it for the printer itself ?
Hey. What about epson 8550? I am having this issue but I do not see the rigid/textile options. HELP!!!
That's b/c that printer is not a purpose built sublimation printer (and is converted) so it does not have access to the same drivers / color profiles as the Epson F170 and F570 which are true sublimation printers
I got an epson 8550 and when I select print your options looks way more advance than mine. I reinstalled the software and just look basic. my prints come out very light not full and colorful. any ideas?
Loved this video as I started today and must say am so thankful your video came up as it was exactly what I needed. Thank you
So glad!
This was amazing advice. I was getting messed up greens, and I think this did the trick!
Fantastic!
Aloha!... I too am experiencing the GREEN thing... For some reason only other than Black all else is green. This was all working fine for the longest time and just started doing this. I wonder if an EPSON update changed anything.. Was yours always printing Green? or did this just start happening? Mahalo (Thanks)
@@papamrk1343I was thinking the same if Epson messed with their software or something because all my colors are off. My pinks are now magenta red and my greens are like blue green. I thought I was the only one experiencing this issue. I’m frustrated at this point because I can’t seem to fix the issue till this day. This happened to me about a month or so ago where all of a sudden the colors are not printing correctly. Have you fixed your printer yet? Any tips if so. Thanks
@@SilhouetteSchoolI can’t see the left of your screen to see where you clicked for printer options
Hi Melissa, I have a mac and the f170, love it. I have the sync option and the textile paper or regit option but the other options do not show up when you said more printer settings, I noticed that you didn't have the f170 on the screen to the right, you had the bigger printer so the settings are different and it has more options so some people may think that they have the added options but all printers don't have the exact options. Just my help tip with any confusion because I too said, wait I don't see that option but then I saw the bigger Epsom printer on the right of yr screen and I realized it why I didn't have the same options.
Correct the F570 and F170 print managers are different
@@SilhouetteSchoolcan you make a video focusing on the 170 have this issue with the colors
Hello. Great tips. I am wondering if you can help me with a issue I am having. I own a epson surecolor f170 that is printing in a odd way. Like about 1/4 of the beginning of the image prints with a ghosting effect. Double image. Afterwards the remainder of the image prints out perfectly fine. I did run the nozzles cleaning and alignment features on the epson and the results I get from running the quality print test come out perfectly fine. Zero issues. I just find it very odd that only about 1/4 of any image I pring is ghosted while the rest of the image is fine. Do you have any idea why this could be happening? Any advice will help. Thanks!
Hi Melissa, thank you for explaining about the colors, I have a new Printer Epson ET-1500 and its not giving me those options Rigid or Textile...I had an Epson 7720 and it has those options but unfortunately I stop using because I accidentally spilled the red ink inside the machine :( So I bought the Epson ET-1500 I love it but I can't not get the color correctly. The purple is printing out like a navy blue. Can you please explain what options sure I use instead??? AutomaticOR Epson SRGB IEC1966-2.1 OR EPSON IJ PRINTER 07. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
The 15000 is not a sublimation printer so it doen'st have the sublimation drivers and that's why you don't have the sublimation color profiles.
Thanks for this video. In the past I have used it to sublimate colours accurately but now the option for Epson-SC-F100 General/Textile and Epson-SC-F100 General/Rigid is now not available from the drop down or in the other profiles section. Do you have any advice? My colours are all jacked but now. Thanks in advance!
ME again. I have solved it. lol. So, I thought I would post this just in case it can help someone else. All I did was remove the printer from my laptop and re-installed it. Now, I have the original settings!
This is very helpful. This may be the wrong time to ask but...I tried sublimating my first mug, the colors were very pale. Can you help me with the proper mug settings, temp & time? I am going to try the things you talked about in this video. Maybe that's all it needs.
Thank you very much for any help. By the way, I love your videos.
Hey there! Check out our Getting Started Page for Sublimation! Midway down the page there is a series of troubleshooting articles that will help! www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/everything-to-know-about-sublimation_9.html
Silhouette Studio on a MAC and I don't have the option for "color matching", whats going on with me?
Is this only for a MAC? When I go to print this box does not pop up for me
hi, i dont have these options, I'm on windows is this why or do i need to download smth for printer??
I have the same printer and the problem I have is the ribbon came loose and when I do the head cleaning the ribbon came loose and so I called Epson and they told me that it's not under warranty anymore and for me to ship it halfway across the country and so since it's not under warranty anymore do you think I should double tape it like it was
I'm not sure about a fix for that issue unfortunately.
OMG! You are a life saver!! I tried this and it worked!! Thanks so much!
You're welcome!
Hi, how do a get to printer option. I have the basic/free account
Hi I’m not sure what happened but when I go to ColorSync and buy the drop box it only say automatic. How can I get the option to choose rigid or textile?
Can you get these paint settings from using either Cricut design studio or Word? My line green comes out dark like grass green.
Awesome! Thank you so much!❤❤❤
i am using the free verson in silhouette studio. and when i go to print it doesn't go to the screen you showed . not sure what to do . my black wont print black and i printed a pastel image and it printed rainbow. I have the surecolor f170.
Hi @mehi29, it would be easier to provide you the help you are requesting if you could please send an email with some additional information. Please provide as much info (including cut settings / exact material / screen grabs) as possible when emailing. My email can be found through the contact page on Silhouette School Blog www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/blog-page_9.html
hello, my epson et2800 prints the correct blue color but after application my blue is now turquoise on my garment. I am applying to a white
I was hopeful that your video would help. Made no difference on my print. When I print from Windows, the colors come out correctly, but my Mac refuses to do anything but that deeper color of blue. Epson F170 with the newest drivers installed. Any ideas?
Hey there, it is hard to troubleshoot here. Please feel free to drop us an email: www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/blog-page_9.html
Or! If you'd like extra help - like in-depth video tutorials or 1:1 help via email or chat for your projects - please consider joining Silhouette U (www.silhouetteu.com). We hope to see you soon!
I’ll have to look for this bc I only have Adobe color option and Epson
I really wish I could find these settings. I'm guessing it has something to do with Mac vs. PC or the printer I'm using. Epson 2800. My grays are brown and it's driving me crazy!
These settings are only for the true Epson sublimation printers. This is the printer manager for them. You would not have these settings if you are using a converted printer
what do you recommend for converted printer settings?@@SilhouetteSchool
Thank you!!!
Do I need to have the paid version to have these options? I don’t seem to have what you’re showing.
No you do not. These are all in the print manager
I have an Epson workforce st2000 converted to sublimation. My teal is coming out blue. How do I change it?
I,ve been sitting the whole day in front of my screen. I have resorted to printing a color gamut? thingy with color hex codes It is showing me how the printer will print out a color vs how it looks and im now using it as a guide to print turqoise #99FFFF is the closest but dull.
Hi you’ve been so helpful in the past Iwas wondering wow to sync my library it’s giving a message that I have too many devices and I have not added anything please help?
My f570 is printing the greys brown and color looks dull when pressed on fabric can you help
Make sure the color setting is not set to Gray Scale
I'm encountering an issue with the color transfer process. The print is supposed to consist of four colors, but when I use a heat press, only the blue color successfully transfers to the garment. I'm reaching out for assistance as I'm feeling quite frustrated.
Does textile lay down more ink than ridgid?
How do you fix it to get those options cause I don't have the epson tex or rigged all I thought I downloaded the drive correctly, How do you fix this?
If you don't have those options and you're using an F570 or F170 you need to make sure you're printing through the print manager and make sure the drivers are installed.
Hi!pLEASE HELP! We have the epson ET 15000 and can't find those driver names. Please help!
Hey there, I am sorry but that is because it is not a sublimation printer so it won't have those drivers.
I have silhouette design but I’m unable to find this option. Can you help?
It will only be available if you have an Epson F570 or F170 and the drivers are installed.
I am using Business Edition of Silhouette Studio so I am not sure if that is why my print box does not seem to have the color sync option??? I can find and change everything else mentioned in this video and your other color fixing video.
Yes I am .. but that would not change anything in the Print Settings. Are you using an F570 or F170?
I am using the F570
Omg you saved me👏🏾👏🏾😭🎉🎉
This is great! Do you think this will work for Epson 16600?
I am trying it tonight!
I’m using a epson 15000 and I use silhouette as my go to for designing and printer Jack ink for 2 years no problems at all now all of a sudden my reds are orange and my pinks are peach. Please help I’m clueless as what to do next
That is not a purpose built sublimation printer or one that can use the Epson sublimation print manager so the troubleshooting would likely be different for you.
I just got my epson 570 and whenever i try to print from silhoutte it shuts down, any suggestions?
Hey there, turning off print preview might help: www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/2023/02/how-to-turn-off-print-preview-in.html If not, you could try another version of Silhouette Studio.
I wonder why those setting options don’t come up on silhouette for me 😞
Do you have the correct drivers installed?
I have the same issue what driver do you need to have ! Please help 😢
YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
I have the f170 and I don't see anything like you're showing. I've downloaded the drivers but I don't have as many options that you show 😢😢😢
Ok I will do a PC version as well.. I didn't realize it was different Mac vs PC and I'm on a PC
I agree. I have the F170 and we don't have the same options that you were showing. Thanks for the video.
by the way, I'm on a Windows, not Mac
@@SilhouetteSchoolI'm also on a PC
@Silhouette School with Melissa Viscount have you done a pc version?
Anyone know how to translate this to HP? My pinks are white and I am at a loss.
Very useful video thank you!
You're welcome!
I converted my epson to a sub printer and they all look so pretty and crisp until I print.. then it’s so dull & not sharp at all.
I am new to this.. what am I doing wrong?
Sublimation prints are dull when they print, the colors will pop once pressed. With that said, with converted printers there could be several different things that are causing issues which is why I don't recommend to convert - it's difficult to troubleshoot.
This video was very helpful. I have an apple computer and an Epson f570 printer. I recently updated the silhouette software and since then all my colors print wrong. I tried calling silhouette America, nobody responds and an email takes a week for someone to respond with no help. How do I fix the settings after the 2024 update?
The print manager looks different after the Mac update I am working on a tutorial/video for that. All the settings are still there though
My green is printing more turquoise any suggestions? On Epson 15000 TIA
Unfortunately b/c it's a converted printer I am unable to assist.
Hi Melissa I have the epson et 2760 nd im having the same problem but in my settings I don't have the rigid or textile option, I really need help
Those settings are only in the print manager for the true Epson sublimation printers, not converted printers
You are amazing you saved me ❤ thank you so much 😊
You're welcome!
My silhouette print options don't look like that I have an epson 2720 using a Dell laptop
That printer has a different print manager since it's not a purpose built / true sublimation printer.
I don't have any of these options from my pc. Any idea how to get the color sync on printing preferences ? My screen looks WAY different in my print settings then yours does :/
Are you using an F170 or F570?
I have an Epson 2720 ET -- Am I too outdated for this lol @@SilhouetteSchool
Im not getting that print page for the settings and presets and im using silhouette studio, what is preventing me from seeing that setting layout?
Did you install the drivers for the printer? I would check this out www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/2022/11/epson-f570-and-f170-sublimation-printer.html
@@SilhouetteSchool I just reinstalled the drivers, I'll watch the video
I'm not seeing any options to select use printer settings ,I'm not sure what's happening and I've downloaded the drivers
I have a Mac desktop. and I also have an epson eco tank 4800, I am having trouble with all my tumbler sublimation prints with the color grey. how can I fix that.
That is not a sublimation printer nor does it use a sublimation color profiles so I am unable to really help you fix that issue. You'd have to do some trial and error.
I can’t wait to try this. I don’t have the choice to control printing settings in design studio. It’s using the Windows print controls.
Ok I will do a PC version as well.. I didn't realize it was different Mac vs PC and I'm on a PC
@@SilhouetteSchool You don't need to go to the trouble!
@@SilhouetteSchool I'm rejoining Silhouette U now that I have room back in my budget. I appreciate your assistance with the hobby that saves my sanity.
I don’t have those options, I’m using a recently purchased F570.
These settings are not in my silhouette
HI, i know this video is kinda old, but i just bumped into it as im trying to find solution to my epson f100 series. I have the same problem. when i print, there's no cyan, so all turquoise comes out blue and gray, comes out brown. so frustrated! i tried doing this video, i am using illustrator to print my image. i followed everything you showed in the printed setting. but when I printed in the paper, the print out came out with turquoise being dark blue again. what could be wrong? is it my adobe illustrator? where else can i print my image? so that the the print out will show the real color from my computer?
Hey there, have you test pressed to see if they’re still looking off when it’s applied?
Ok I might not be seeing it, but how do you get to the printing settings on silhouette? When I hit print, it goes to the print preview.
Click Print again and it will go to the Print settings (or turn off Print Preview)
@@SilhouetteSchool ok, thank you.
Does the f570 come with an epson software to print from? If so is it compatible to printing with SS?
Yes the F570 comes with a layout software but it's PC compatible only. If you are using Silhouette Studio to design and layout you dont need it b/c the print manager is accessible from Silhouette Studio as well. That's what I use.
do you have a link to the paper you used for the 170. thank you!
Enjoyed your video. I did all these steps & my images when pressed are still coming out dark blues & pinks instead of aqua & light pink. What should I do next?
Have you been able to solve your problem? I have the same color issues after I updated the silhouette software. I tried calling silhouette America and nobody answers. I tried email and it takes them a week to respond with no help. This video was helpful at first but since the update all the settings changed and my colors are wrong.
@@goodfellas3240 I called Epson & was able to get this problem fixed. I think it was the last update I did on my Mac. It was hard for me to understand the tech as I having hearing loss.
My grey is printing grey, but when sublimated it's either brown or green 😢 I have an Epson 2720converted to sublimation.
I am find that my green's and purples are not pressing the correct color. What are the settings for a PC? I not seeing the same options. I have Textile or Rigid and under more options I see Automatic or Custom. If I choose custom, under advanced I can choose ICC or no color correction.

What version is this of silhouette studio
I'm not sure what version I was using in this video, but it doesn't really matter about that. What you're seeing is the Epson print manager for the F570 and F170
Is epson depend on the type of sublimation paper, because I used forever universal and it didn't work the ink come out from the paper!!! And there's no option for glossy paper
What sublimation printer are you using?
I have windows and I don’t have those settings can you do a tutorial like this but for windows please
I think I found the answer - possibly, that Color Sync is a mac thing. Windows is ICM or something like that.
really liked your presentation. I have a major problem and I was wondering if you are able to help me or know how to fix my problem. I am using Silhouette Studio (free version 4.5) on my Apple iMac and I am have an EPSON SC f--570 sublimation printer. When printing from that printer,, some colors do not sync. The green color prints blue. Do you know what is wrong or how do I fix the problem. PLEASE HELP!
Yes this video explains how to fix that issue by using the correct color profile
@@SilhouetteSchool I did what you have mentioned in the video, but the colors still did not match. The color green prints blue for some reason. :(
Im having the same issue. In a epson sc f100. My black is brown i have tryed everything
Same issue and I don't have the settings that she shows in the video. I have printing preferences but not printing settings and they are completely different
Hey I am just a begginner in sublimation printing. Using Epson L120 .my black is coming out as blue when heat press on a substrate. Anyone to comment on this?
Hey there, it could be due to having a converted printer.
@@SilhouetteSchool Can it be rectified?
I, desperately need help printing accurate colors from F170 Epson printer. My greens keep showing up blue and I have already tried all possible color settings from the driver and even different programs including Silhouette. I am using Windows and like someone here has already mentioned, the driver for F170 does not give so many options. Please help me!
Make sure you're done a nozzle check to ensure you aren't missing any nozzles.
Thanks for your quick reply, I'm not sure what you mean by nozzles but the printer is brand new out of the box. Ok, I will do some research to understand what are nozzles and if I'm missing any but I'd also like it if you could clarify, please and thanks, these tutorials are great material, very much appreciated.@@SilhouetteSchool

Does anyone know why my sublimation prints with white or transparent background would come out a really light grey or off white color background? It only prints like this when I print with color not with black and white prints….
Someone please help I can’t find a video for it anywhere. 😢
Is the background of the image transparent?
My print menu doesn’t look like this. Are you are to help me?

So, I don't have those color profiles. There aren't on my Mac nor are they available to download. I am really confused and don't know what to do. My images are coming out too dark/wrong colors.
If you don't have the color profiles then you don't have the correct drives installed. Re-install the printer
@@SilhouetteSchool thanks, but I've done that at least once. Didn't fix it.
Hi Melissa this sittings work design on windows ? Thank you 😊
I am going to work on a PC version soon!
I have never been able to get these screens to pull up. I am using Business 4.5.152ssbe
If you don't have this screen available then you likely do not have the print drivers installed
I can print from every other software just not Silhouette Studio
I need a video like this but for photoshop!
And for the Epson F100 ❤
this is similar to my issue with the epson 2720. i cant get the settings to fix it so colors are not so dark and untrue
It's difficult to troubleshoot sublimation issues on converted printers b/c those printers were not intended to be used that way so it could be a print head issue or it could be a settings issue. Hard to say
mine is epson 3150 and i used to print from my phone and everything was perfect for months then suddenly it changed and now colors are prining so bad like pagie became yellow and red became pink etc please help i need it fixed fast i have orders
Unfortunately this can happen with printers that are converted to sublimation when that's not their intended use. I would recommend if you are selling sublimation products you use a dye sublimation printer so the parts are designed to be use with that ink..and you don't end up voiding the warranty and sacrifice support.
I have the Epson 8550..Can you help me with the settings? I would greatly appreciate it. Btw, love you!!
Hey there! Thanks so much for the kind words. Unfortunately, I really don't recommend converting ink jets because they can be inconsistent and it voids your warranty.
I have downloaded the driver for the 570 however my settings did not look like your examples. Thanks
Are you on a PC? If so, follow this: th-cam.com/video/jUz56PO40fU/w-d-xo.html
I have watched that video. Next question is when I go to print the silhouette print box pops up and just keeps spinning.
I need help my printer keeps printing double.... idk how to fix it 😢 i cant find any videos to help
Hi there, I am not totally sure what you mean by printing double. If it is printing two of the same print on one page, I'd check that you don't have the pinter settings to have multiple 'copies'
I have an F170 and am using windows and I have this EXACT problem. My teal is all BLUE. I have tried everything. Now i am using photo shop and I am still having this issue. HELP!

Are you on a Mac or PC? This is the screen that appears when going to File > Print in Silhouette Studio (and other software programs).
Thank you so much for this video! With the help of this video I was able to fix my colors with no problems
That's great!

You mentioned Swing Design sublimation paper- do you have a link for that particular paper?
Sure! Here is the link: shrsl.com/3slei (afil).
@@SilhouetteSchool awesome, thank you! I guessed correctly 😆 Just wanted to make sure. I appreciate your help. This video was exactly what I needed. I couldn’t figure out why my colors were “off”…specifically the ones you were showing!!
How do i change the paper type I can’t find that option
What do you mean the paper type? You are using sublimation transfer paper, correct?
