..though on a side note.. we've just run a few samples (working with wraps and oven btw) and in the photoshop print dialogue box selected the profile for glossy paper rather than the inkjet option as instructed by the Sawgrass pdf. (working with Tru Pix) The colours have really popped for the first time. Great vibrancy and very true. Would be interested if anyone had an angle on this and/or if it was using more ink perhaps?

I have played with the settings and get different results too some better some not! Not sure about the ink but the better ones come up in photographic mode for me.

Thanks, I saw that too and queried 'Error Diffusion' (ref. banding? clean edges?) over 'Photographic' -Will give that a try also. M
