I received my printer for Christmas and didnt realize I needed to download the driver. This helped me more than you will ever know in the whole set up. Thank you for posting.

Thank you. Was getting so frustrated with my ET 8550 as my pinks we printing red/orange. Was advised to download ICC profiles, did this but then pinks were printing purple. I'm using Izumi inks and paper. Changed to your settings and my colours are much better.

I noticed one of the ducument size selections was 17 x 22. Can this be done with dye sub paper off a role ? thx

Thanks - your video was really helpful. I'm a Mac user -- my RED prints/presses way too dark purple-ish/maroon (compared to the same image from my 2720) - have you had to make any additional tweaks to your colors? TIA.

I originally was going to get an ET-15000 and had a set of ink coming for it, but I switched to this printer and have it coming in next week and where I ordered ink from doesn't have an option for the 6 colors yet. DO you believe it is it safe to mix inks?

With PB and Gray you'll be good. Here is a set for those who have their own CMYK sublimation ink already. Its just the PB and GRAY sub ink for ecotank printers. www.dynamitegorilla.com/product-page/photo-black-and-gray-sublimation-ink-for-et-8500-8550

I’m not sure what I am doing wrong… I set up the color profile like yours… but when I go to do the B/W profile… when I click the drop down to change to B/W Photo.. mine is grayed out and won’t let me choose. When I hover over it; it says “The current paper type is not supported by this feature.” The only other option to choose is the Black/Grayscale. I set my profile name the same ASub 120 also since I use that as well. Help!

Hey mate - your videos are awesome. just starting up sublimation printing and got a new 8550.

@@ocbsquared black and photo black no difference in sublimation. But you do have to use gray. Otherwise the money you've spent on a photo printer for better quality is a waste. You can buy grey over there - lot of suppliers. I had to import. Hoe this helps. By the way printer is awesome - prefer for sublimation prints
