I was going to try my new setup today, but ran into a couple of issues I don't know the answer to. Perhaps some of you more knowlegeable folk could help.
I have bought the Ricoh GXE3300 but don't really know whether I need to use the Sawgrass drivers or the ICC software. I'm using photoshop CS2, but am a bit of a novice there also.
The other thing that stumpled me initially was should I print on the white or 'cream' side of the paper. I found out it should be white (truepix) and when I did the first print it looked like I had printed on the 'cream' side, so I turned the paper over in the printer, but the next sheet came out the same. So I turned it again, and still the unprinted side was whiter than the printed side!!!
Anyway, I did do a mug, but the colours look washed out, so I need a bit of practice, and some advice about the drivers please.
I was quite excited when the mug was cooked, even though it wasn't marvellous.
