blime! your colours are right off

it all look like washed out. is that what you normaly geting? I dont know about this blue on your mug but it should be purple.
and as i can ee from your pic grey does not exist at all. insted grey there is some blue cast. is that correct? or only impression made by your camera??

Just my crap photo, lol, the greys look OK, it's just the blues that are wrong, and the pink that came out purple, but that happens quite often

most of the colours from palete (squers) are very light coloured. are you sure all your settings ok?? this picture should be much more saturated.

The setting haven't been changed on it, and up until trying to do this royal blue mug, not had any problems, that I'm aware of.
Here's a different mug I made, and colours are all vibrant on that

Been thinking about this, and the colour/saturation problem only occured after I put the new carts in.
Will go do one of my horse mugs and see how that turns out.

I *think* I've sorted it, got a mug in the press just now, give me a few minutes til it's done and I can check it, the colours looked better on the paper.
I'd somehow managed to tick the ICC profile button in setup (don't know how I did that as I never look in there, lol)

*insert embarassed face here*
It's now sorted, problem must have been because the ICC profile somehow managed to get ticked.
Printed the mug image again, and all colours are nice and vibrant........ and correct colours.
Thanks for your help on this
