im using try pix paper and yes printing in the correct side.

I would guess it is the paper. Although it is a good paper; Trupix Classic is not high release paper and performs very similar to our Subli-Sharp paper.

I tested Trupix against my Subli-TEXTILE paper-

Left is TexPrint XP HR
Middle is Subli-TEXTILE
Right is Trupix Classic

Are you likely to be getting that paper in A3+ anytime soon? The reason I stopped using Texprint XPHR was that it isn't imported into the UK in A3+ size - ironic since there must be more Epson A3+ sublimation printers than Sawgrass SG800's in use.
How do you find the lighter 100gsm weight? Is there much ink bleeding through?

A3+ is due in next month, currently only stocking A4 and A3 but A3+ is on order

Although its 100gsm the actual feel of it isn't much different to my 120gsm paper. No issue at all with bleed through either.

Looks like nice paper, so I will give it a go when the larger size comes in. I was always happy with XPHR, but those results look better.

XPHR is a great paper, it was the best High Release I could find when I was trying to source our own. Our paper releases a touch more ink but not a major amount, but I felt paper handling was a little better on our paper (it did not curl as easily when placed under the press and also did not get marked by the paper rollers when printing)
