Hi guys as you know I am a newbie to all this....I bought some SRN sublimation paper online from srnhorizon.com, the colour images we are getting on the mugs are not very vibrant and quite faded, after looking around the site I have just purchased some TRUPIX paper from BMS to see if this makes a difference...but more investigating is leading me to believe it could be the ICC profile on the printer, could anyone help out with a profile or help me with the settings plz i'm using CS5 to print.

Any help would be great

Could actually be the ink are you using licensed ink but if you want a profile doing Paul is the man look in suupliers section of forum for mug templates etc thats him.

Hi I'm not sure what ink it is tbh i bought the printer with the ink he refilled the cartridges when i was there. What ink would be the best to use?

You can download the icc profile from Sawgrass from this link http://www.sawgrassink.com/technical-su ... c-profiles it does say C120 but it is the same as the D120.

Best ink is are from sawgrass seems funny how he filled it while you were there are you using a cis system .
Have a look on this site http://www.sawgrasseurope.com/technical-support
Epson printers are renowned for blocking.
When you are printing onto the paper are you printing on to the white side or dull side of paper

thank you ian for your help

You'll need to find out what ink you've had put in your cartridges - I'm presuming it is sublimation ink isn't it?

there is no point of doing custom icc for this any way as you only have about 10ml of ink in your carts. soon as first one will run out you need to refill it yourself so colors wont match. custom icc is only worth when you use same ink all the time.
