ICC for Ricoh SG7100DN with no SUBLIJET

[Oaten]

Hi Pisquee,

So I should be using RGB?

Yep I have Sawgrass inks. That just printed to paper next to my screen and also my screen is full HD and it also the same when on a retina screen.

Thanks again every this forum is a lifesaver and full of so much knowledge and helpful people

below are the settings:

Hard to see those captures as they're a bit small.
If you're using Photoshop, I would ditch PowerDriver and let Photoshop manage colours and print directly to the Ricoh driver. ICC profiles and instructions on this route are available from Sawgrass.
As you're using Sawgrass inks, then your problem isn't really the same as the OP of this thread, as he isn't using their inks but was trying to use their ICC (Which doesn't make sense)
Set your working space to Adobe RGB 1998 and not sRGB.
Also, it doesn't matter if you have a retina or full HD display, if it is not calibrated, then you canno assume that you can trust the colours it displays. Do you think Apple are more likely to set their screens so things looks appealing to the eye or for them to be accurate?

Thanks for the help I will try everything that has been suggested.

Out of interest how do you setup a screen?

[pisquee]

To calibrate a screen you need a colormunki or spyder, this will measure colour on your screen and create an ICC profile to compensate for the way it displays colour - without doing this you can't really trust what you are looking at.

Finally got a orange print this morning through the printer settings but the only issue now is it doesnt look as sharp as what it does when its pink and its also missing the faint text in the background. Any other ideas?
