Colour matching issue

[Sbanks]

I managed to pick up a used ricoh gx7000 and set of brand new in date sawgrass inks yesterday (right place right time) I spent the evening setting it up.
I am having some colour marching issues and wondering if there are any suggestions out there.
I have used the set up from the sawgrass and used all the drivers and settings they suggest. I am using true pix classic paper.

These are all printed on a sheet of 100% polyester. I do see some banding on the paper when printed. But they do not show as much or at all when pressed. I am going to clean the heads etc today. But I doubt that will help with my colour matching. Is there any suggestions at all for me? Thank you.

What is your nozzle check/test print like- looking at your banding, and your colour charts, I would say you're missing a few, and hopefully you can clear it up with some head cleans, also do some realignments.

As far as colour matching, you haven't said what graphics software you're using, and whether it is running colour management with the Sawgrass ICC, or if PowerDriver is handling that side of things.
If you have proper colour managed graphics software, then you'd probably get better results (and workflow) from using ICC profiles, and even better results if you get a custom ICC created from Paul on this forum.
But before looking at colour management, you need to get all your nozzles firing, and properly aligned.

yep. few nozzles blocked and colours can go out the window. So do what Tim suggested and let us know.
