I have some issues that I need help with, any advice would be appreciated. I can take pictures if required.
**I have contacted paul about an ICC**

EQT:
Epson WF 7110 - updated the firmware - installed drivers from the Epson web page.
ink pro - sublimation ink.
paper doesn't have a brand name.
ukpress - mug press.
and I have a large unbranded clam press from Germany.


The issues:
Mugs-
- colour bleed/ shadowy tinge.
- edges of mugs some times go purple.
- edges look like the image has cracked.
T-Shirts-
usually ok some colour issues
Pillow cases-
- colour change reds become orange, blacks become green, whites become yellow.

A lot of problems over all! I have had varied success with mugs and T's but have trouble with consistency.
Would you be ale to help me with some or all these issues?

WF7110 I have sold loads of inks for thi s machine , the main issue is the profile needs creating for the correct paper and ink combination, however if your using a cheap chinese ink then there may well be no batch to batch consistency, this means a profile wont help once you refil the carts the colours will change. Try a more stable ink get it profiled and you should get better results. Feathering is generally over inking which means the paper type and profile are not correct.

that's interesting, ill contact the supplier and ask where the ink is from. also the "feathering" could that be due to me printing using a Matte setting?

It could be putting too much ink down. If they supply a profie the they also should supply the settings for the driver as one is useless without the other

On the WF-7110, I generally recommend "plain paper" and "high quality" in the printing preferences. Photo paper settings can put too much ink down on the page, leading to the inks bleeding.

On your yellowing pillow cases, are they 100% polyester, and are you using sublimation paper? Are they brand new?

Also starting to have problems with this printer only had it 4 week. Coming out yellow any help would be much appreciated
