Your Epson Stylus Pro 4800 comes with drivers and utilities that let you print and manage print jobs. ICC profiles for ColorSync® are included, so you can use color management features in Adobe® Photoshop® or other applications, or in the driver itself. A color-managed workflow using Photoshop will give you the most accurate colors and best photographic output from your Epson Stylus Pro 4800 for color photos. For the best black and white photography output, the Stylus Pro 4800 driver offers Advanced Black and White mode.

You can create your own profiles if you have the required hardware and software, or you can have them created by a color specialist. Make sure any profiles you want to use are located in the standard folder for your operating system. When you install the Epson printer driver, the ready-made profiles are automatically copied to the right folder.
