Sublimation Blacks are terrible

@garret27951133i0qh do you have an ICC profile specific to your printer make and model, for the sublimation inks AND the substrate (the Chromaluxe metal) If not it's very probably worth getting in touch with a service who will make one for you. You'll use that ICC profile in the "Photoshop Manages Color" Interface.

I hope this helps

Hi @garret27951133i0qh

Thanks for reaching out, and welcome to the community! Sorry to hear about the issues with your sublimation prints. Could you please share a few more details to help us understand better?

• What color profile and print settings are you using? You can check this by going to File > Print > Expand Color Management. For Color Handling, try selecting Photoshop Manages Colors and see if that improves the output.

• Have you tried printing from any other application to see if the issue persists?

You can also refer to this guide for more details on printing with color management in Photoshop: https://adobe.ly/49hIMIH

These details will help us determine whether the problem is related to Photoshop’s color management, the printer driver, or the sublimation process itself.

Regards,

Srishti

Perhaps start by sharing a screenshot of your Photoshop print dialog colour settings and the Epson printer driver settings.
