Wrap an old t-shirt around a mug and you'll get by for some test prints.

I had a go with three diferent type of paper. some of them give better result some of them worst but still prints from texprint are worst and you can see grains. most of my picture are bright. on white background. like this:

I had a similar issue with my D120 last year. It had been working just fine for months, then suddenly started printing really really dark and quite grainy. I downloaded a new Profile from Sawgrass website, but I know you have made your own profile, so may not be the same issue for you. MAY be worth using your Munki again to try making a new profile?

I got so frustrated eith the D120, I binned it!

this is the first thing I did barry! :tongue:
profiled it again! colours are fine but this bloody grain... I try to post some pics later on.


edit:
is it possible that ink is out of date now?? It make me think as I dont do this stuff for money so I dont print loads every day. so I use one set of ink in 1.5year...
