Anyone with either a 5050 or 7000 printer be able to print me an A4 test sheet of my image please? Send me a PM if you can help.

Thanks,
Justin

Once Ive bought and received the inks mate I will.

Well, I'm back to the Epson D120. Getting far better prints on that than the 5050

I've started to read reviews that the 5050 just isn't up to standard now. It's being said that it prints too quickly to get a decent image quality, something that I'm deffo finding.

Oh well, you live and learn. Wish I'd taken the time to look at the Ricohs more before I re-mortgaged!

Justin

Are you sure powerdriver wont work with the 5050 please as I have been told that it will?

Sorry I missed this question. Pretty sure the GX5050 won't support PowerDriver software.

I think there's a problem with the print area if you use the Powerdriver. I used to use this on an Epson 4800 and had didn't rate it against just using a profile.

Justin

Is this because the profile is set to American page settings rather than A4?

I'm not sure, it's not something I've tried personally, just read it many times.

Very odd mate,
I have an friend who runs a dye sub business using a ricoh with inks supplied by martin and he says both rock.

This is what several users have told me and what I based the purchase on but now I'm being told that the image cannot compete with a good Epson.

I have a 7000 that is my first dye-sub printer so a bit hard for me to do direct comparisons.

I am a complete fussy git, and have had nothing but praise I could say so far with the printer
and inks.
