I would do a search on the forum about this printer and icc profiles. There seems to be a flood of them on ebay being sold as sublimation printers with some kind of unbranded sublimation ink and no customer service back up.
Many thanks
Iain

Equipment used A4 Ricoh printer, HP3085 Heat Press Graphtec cutter, Jarin mug press, CJV 30-60 solvent printer and lots of help from DSF.

Indeed, mate bought one and we has no luck getting it to work, so bought the 3000 series one and that works spot on , buy cheap but twice

I think its possible that you were given original cartridges, complete with the original ink, and then a set of inks for dye sub, therefore the ink you are running at the moment, is not sub ink its the std ink, and possibly they should have supplied you a set of empty cartridges for you to put the sub ink into. i would not bother pressing anything else until you have established exactly what ink you have in the cartridges at the moment

The paper won't make much difference you can use standard A4 photocopy paper fine for sublimation you try it one day you will be surprised.

OP is using normal ink.

That limey/yellow colour is typical of trying to sublimate with standard inkjet carts.
