hi paul, using a paul icc, only thing thats different is paper. i can understand why the acual print (on right) is fine, just like the original i scanned. but when subbed onto wallet its green, my mugs and other stuff are fine. maybe i will try this print on a mouse mat and see how it comes out.
i have not adjusted anything else in photoshop just printed original .

Just printed a slate with the same printout as used on wallet. The slate has come out perfect, in fact 100% better. So I still don't understand how the wallet was green as the picture I used to sub it was not.

all media are different

try something else ie other fabric item...
also what pressure did you used for your wallet?
I found that they print best with heavy (VERY) pressure

did you get this to work, I have just had the same problem with a t-shirt. I know my icc is not setup correctly but I am printing just plain black text so I thought it would be ok but it came out a dirty green/brown even though the pressed page looked completely black
