I print on mugs, t-shirts,photopanels, ect, using the powerdriver on it's default settings.
Just a thought, what paper are you using?
Timings and temps on the mug press?
Jack.

Thank you for your reply. That's what I found, I emailed sawgrass support and they said that unfortunately you cannot change the speed of printing with Ricoh GX7000. I find that really strange, why wouldn't you want to take advantage of high quality printing when the printer is capable of printing really great images on high quality. I used similar setting but selected Ceramic as I was going to sublimate on mugs - did you print for mugs or something else?
Does anybody know if there is any colour profile for Ricoh GX7000 I could use that would have the same effect on colours as Powerdriver but could print with Gelsprinter default driver so I can achieve high quality prints?
Thank you so much for all your input.
Allan
ICC Profiles for the Ricoh are available by download from
www.sawgrasseurope.com via the technical support link (as well as details on how to set them up in various versions of Photoshop or CorelDraw).

Thank you very much, I will try that. Am I correct in thinking that if I put the ICC on the image in Photoshop it should print out correct colours for mug printing (same/similar colour correction as used by Powerdriver) using the printer's default Gelsprinter driver?

I disabled the colour managent on corel draw and my Ricoh prints beautiful print outs using the powerdriver

Effectively yes, but you'll need to make more changes to PhotoShop as well as the printer driver. Again full instructions on what to do will be available from the same link.
