so i converted ricoh 2110 to sublimation but very disappointed i can either get good graphics or good photos but not at the same time anybody got any ideas as to what settings i need to tweak. or should i give it up as a loss and get an epson

Hi bels. Can you give some more information?

• Ink brand.
• Paper brand.
• Software used for printing.
• Whether you have the correct ICC profile for your ink and paper.
• What you are sublimating: metal, ceramics, clothing, etc.

Thanks.

hi the inks I use are ink express supplied by a local firm which is why i purchased them I have contacted them countless times for a icc profile and all I get is sorry we will get it to you straight away but it never arrives

my paper is text print xp which I have used in the past on my other machines with excellent results

I predominately print on ceramic but I do other materials aswell

I use photoshop cc for design and printing it does have print setting for ricoh but I get the same results as if I use printer settings the result are my graphics are excellent crisp and vibrant but when I include a photo in the design the people look like the have a bad spray tan if I adjust the settings in the printer I can get a reasonable photo but the background is dull. I have an Epson workforce printer and the same design comes out great using basic printer settings.

I got this printer because I do a lot of fairs and markets where I need a small footprint so my Epson is just to big

so now I cant decide whether to just go and get a ricoh 3110 with sawgrass inks which I know work as ive used them before but want to get away from the whole sawgrass monopoly on inks and prices

thanks bels
