It's relatively new cartridges, only done about a couple of dozen A3 pages since putting them in, so I don't think it's that.

The DSF logo doesn't really have the right colour in it, will have a mooch about on google and see if I can find something to try

Is this a setting in Corel only?

Its a setting in Powerdriver so you'll only see it if you're using a Ricoh (I believe).

Were you ever able to get royal blue printed? I gave up on Rotech ink because I couldn't get a decent blue. Artanium correctly set up in Photoshop and the printer driver cured that. I can't help with the Powerdriver set up sorry, but I had a similar problem when the printer driver suddenly changed the Colour Handling Settings from allowing 'Photoshop to manage colour' to let 'printer manage colour.' Is there anything similar in Powerdriver?

PowerDriver is just a printer driver. The colour handling settings are within Photoshop aren't they so you can tweak 'Photoshop to manage colour' to let 'printer manage colour' regardless of using PowerDriver or anything else.

On the image you posted up there for me, on the large colour panel, the 4th from the left, 2nd from the top, the colour looks like maroon/purple.

Can you tell me what colour that is please as when I pressed it, it came out the colour I need :O

Will go find my camera and take a piccy and show you what I mean.

I'm on my mac just now, using coreldraw X4, with the powerdriver set as sawgrass recommend, and it still came out royal blue, lol
