Hi i have a b1100 epson scince buying it it has been replaced 3 times for a new printer under warranty due to mechanichal issues and the most recent one i have had is 2 months old,ive been printing with sublimination for 4 years now and through out that time ive always seem to have a issue with over spraying on magenta usually i find its to do with refilling the cartridges before the printer wants to but lately nothing i do helps the new printer and all my printouts are way too pink ive also noticed pink spray around the edges of the images
Heres what i have tried to fix the issue so far
New cartridges :printer really hated this and wont recognise them unless i put normal ones in first still over printing
Cleaning the heads with the settings on the printer : doesnt solve the over spraying but does stop the spray around the edge of the images
cleaning the nozzle heads by hand again gives a better quality print out but still to pink
printing with a different program: have tried photo shop and corel both came out worse best was office colour wise
reducing the magenta to 0: worked for a while until the printer ran out of ink then even with 0 magenta on the settings is printing way to pink

I have used the same ink for years and know when working its brilliant i use true pix paper and usually get great print outs however this time i dont seem to be able to get the printer going right and have some big orders on ,when i do reduce the ink to 0 and get a ok image when i print it in the press some areas are still to pink im guessing the magenta is off balance im going to try a full clean today and get to the nozzles with a cleaning solution and a cotton bud but im really worried this is something to do with the printer thinking it should be using more ink
as its epson this isnt the sort of problem they will help with so any advice would be great im ready to try watering down the ink at the moment as im at my wits end with it
many thanks cerri
