Worth running over the instructions on the Sawgrass website if you haven't already. Also, SG will dial in and check everything out for you.

I have changed the settings to 'Photoshop manages colors', but the result is the same.
If I try the power driver, the printer does not print at all ... so I have to look into that.

Workspace should be Adobe RGB 1998, not sRGB
Photoshop manages colours, and select your sub ink icc
use normal printer driver, not power driver
turn off all colour correction etc in printer driver

I know it's not the perfect sollution, but I played a bit with the onscreen colors and now it works for me ... however, I would like a permanent sollution for this problem. With all the tips you gave me, not one of them was the tip to help solve it. So I will keep on searching!!!

What material are you pressing? Is it 100% polyester? Have you tried pressing anything else: mug, jigsaw, aluminium sheet etc that isn't fabric?

It's lycra, I think that's 80% polyester ...
I will try on something else!

Hi Maartje, If it is Lycra that you are pressing, from my days in the Plastics industry, I recall that Lycra is mostly polyurethane (80-85%), I don't believe it has any Polyester content
You are doing well if the results in your first post are pressed on Lycra
