Re: Creating an ICC Profile - What Substrate to Scan From?

<t>Thanks both for the help. I do have some metal signs somewhere so I'll use them to print on if I need to.<br/>
<br/>
It's Inkexperts ink that I've just switched to but they don't support my printer. I have discovered after a couple of test prints that my old profile (for a different manufacturers ...

Re: Creating an ICC Profile - What Substrate to Scan From?

<t>I understand the principle in that I print out some test charts, scan them with the ICC gadget/software, print out a 2nd set of test charts, scan them in again and bingo I've got my profile (hopefully).<br/>
<br/>
I only want to sublimate mugs. What do I print/sublimate the test charts onto as I ...

Re: Yellow Fringe on Print Problem

<t>I've been testing with a different file which I've added below. I've also cleaned the capping station and print head but it's not made any difference,. Also I've found that if I print in b&w mode that there are a couple of white lines through the print as if one or two of the black nozzles aren't ...

Re: Yellow Fringe on Print Problem

The picture is the paper before pressing. It prints the same yellow fringe on the right hand side of the graphic on sublimation and regular copier paper so I assume it's not the paper. It's far more noticible on black and green colours than say reds.

Re: Yellow Fringe on Print Problem

<t>Thanks for the help so far. I've cleaned the encoder strip (almost no dirt on the cloth) but it's still doing the same unfortunatly. I've printed out different colour squares. Hardly any yellow creeping out on the blues and reds but very noticible on greens and blacks. Always more on the right ...

Re: Yellow Fringe on Print Problem

<t>Hi. I'm using a Sawgrass SG400 to print a black image onto sublimation paper (same outcome on regular paper) and am getting a yellow fringe (see picture). I'm printing from Photoshop if that makes a difference. Interestingly the fringe is only on one side of the print?<br/>

I've run a head ...

Re: Mini Air Classic Air Pillow Cushion Bubble Bag Packing Wrap Machine

I'd just like to post a big thank you to Olly for the machine. Apologies it's taken so long to reply but we've been busy and only got round to unboxing it and using it yesterday. All good.

Also sorry to Mrteajunkie for grabbing it first.

Re: Reds coming out orangeish

I tried about 3 or 4 sets of inks and papers from different suppliers and was never 100% happy with my results. Perhaps it's my technique or setup causing my issues. I ended up making my own ICC profile.

Re: stahls- any other recommendations?

I bought a Hotronix press as my first press. I think it's the only piece of equipment I haven't had to replace or upgrade.
