You really do need an ICC profile to get the correct colours & you will have to have a custom made one because, the Epson S22 isn't a supported printer.

Where did you buy the inks from?

I think you also print on "normal" setting of your printer if image is ok on paper.

With the Epson I selected the photo setting as it was a photo I was doing not the "best" setting. You get several options including text, photo, best photo, text and image or draft.

Yes that is a C machine. Sorry if I didn't recall you bought this from us - the DSF pseudonym means very little to me unless it's an acronym of your account reference with us :)

:smile: no that's fine I bought it a while ago had to check my emails before I said that! I've been using it for HTV so far. I bought the xpres paper from you and I'm wondering if I printed on the wrong side - it's hard to make out which side is which. Is there an easy way to identify the right side to print on? Thanks
