Issue / Question
Color issues when printing
Applicable To
Zebra card printers
Resolution / Answer
A “Color Profile” can be added to the printer’s Windows driver in the Color Management Tab which may get the printer’s output closer to the desired color.
Color profiles can be requested from Zebra technical support.
By default the color profiles are stored in the following location on Windows:
C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color
You can copy and paste color profile file into that location.
Next, in Devices and printers of Windows Control Panel, right click on the printer, choose Printer properties, and then Color management.
Click on the color management button.
Select the ZXP 3 printer from the drop down menu and check the box for use my settings, then click on the add button in the lower left hand corner.
Then scroll down the list until you find the right color profile.
After that is selected keep clicking Close until you are back at the color management tab, then click apply/ok.
Below is what the profile looks loaded in the driver color management.
