Which version of Corel Draw do you have? I can email the pdf for setting this up for you. Can you pm your email address to me?

Hi David,

I am currently looking at that printer. How are you finding it?

I've just bought another 1400, had problems with the last one but I like the printer so much I'm having another go. I've just ditched the Ricoh 5050. I find the print quality of the 1400 superior to many others. I used to work with an 8 colour Epson 4800 and still prefer the 1400 output.

I also run a D120 4 colour. Prints are excellent but side by side you really do notice a big difference, particularly in skin tones which will be down to the 6 colour system. A 4 colour system is more than adequate for sublimation but personally I find a 6 colour still improves the finished article.

The 1400 is excellent and I'm sure you'll be pleased. Yes, you can buy it cheaper if bought Separately from the CIS but there's something to be said for buying it altogether, it makes support/warranty etc. a whole lot easier....as I've found in the past.

You could also consider the B1100. This is a 4 colour system (5 cart's as it uses 2 blacks) the same as the D120 but is an A3 printer.
This is a new printer to sublimation and hasn't been released yet but is due very soon.

Thanks man, I will ask if they price match may be. but I agree they are dye sub pros and do it all the time so I can not see them selling not good printers.

Thanks
