SubliJet PowerDrivers

[sika]

Anybody use a SubliJet PowerDriver ? i have a GX7000 and ive been using a icc provided by xpres, i've heard great things about powerdriver but i'm unsure of how to install since i've already setup with xpres icc & already setup corel draw according to there instructions?

If you're happy with the output with ICC then there's no need for PowerDriver. All the instructions and overview should be on the CD that came with your SubliJet-R inks.

bought package from xpres so cds were from them (none for inks) but they dont use the powerdriver at all, just wondering what other peopel think of the powerdriver, i had a right game trying to get my colours right and they are acceptable just not perfect, thats why i'm curious about PowerDriver

Xpres don't support PowerDriver?! PowerDriver is so much easier to use and set up as you don't have to configure your graphics package and to that end you don't even need to be using Corel or PhotoShop as you can print from absolutely anything.

You can download PowerDriver directly from Sawgrass at the following link

Thats the good stuff about powerdriver
you can use ANY software you familiar with for your printing! I may try that on my B1100

They provide Sublijet inks with their package and sell them but then give a really long install,

Interesting info on the 3300 icc profile, please do post back your results, i'll try the powerdriver out tomorrow and see how it works out for me, would be great because then i could use photoshop hehe

I installed both - probably little point but I have the option.

Ah, but PowerDriver is for the Ricoh printers. There is a version available for Epson printers but only with SubliJetIQ inks.

but it works with normal subli inks too
