mr300s 1,272 Posted July 6, 2014 What program are you using to print these? Like I said call Richard he is great and will walk you right through the install of the color profile as he has done many times before. That's even if you don't buy the printer from him, he still gives great support .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djque 246 Posted July 6, 2014 That red should be pink if that red should be pink then you need to do a nozzle check and make sure your colors are all firing. also are you printing in rgb and not cymk. and when you print does your program control your printing. Plus a calibrated screen for sublimation would show how your colors will print. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus a calibrated screen for sublimation would show how your colors will print. A calibrated screen would help tons because you may be printing what the pc sees perfectly now but what your monitor shows is different. I got around this by printing a color chart and sublimating it onto Mates decal material so I know what each color prints as. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eddieb378 41 Posted July 6, 2014 I know this May sound stupid but how do I get a calibrated screen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted July 6, 2014 That's out of my league which is why I made the sample sheet. I'd google it and see what comes up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OWJones 1,981 Posted July 6, 2014 You need a monitor color calibration tool and software. This link goes to the cheapest one I found on Amazon after 30 seconds of searching - better deals can probably be found... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eddieb378 41 Posted July 7, 2014 It is getting better the nozzle check showed that it needed to be cleaned it took 3 times to get it right!its still not clear as it should be but I am thinking it's my sub paper now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
