I tried posting in the sublimation forum, but haven't received much for replies. I thought I might try here. I am having some strange results with my color when printing to my Workforce 30 printer using ArTainium ink on ImageRight sublimation paper. The colors all look much different than that of my pigmented heat transfer ink on JPSS paper. The blacks, greys, and silvers are all a little on the purple side, and the red has a slightly orange tint to it. I used the color correction software from coastal business made for the sawgrass ink, with my printer, and I'm using their paper. I'm sure it is configured as they describe and it is using their ICC Profile. Anyone have any suggestions?

Here's the link to my older thread:
Workforce 30 ICC Profile Configuration

Thanks,
Matt

Profiles are specific to printers/inks/media and process, so if you are heating at a higher temp. or for longer you will get a different colour.
The fabric may be a different composition to that with which the profile was done.
You can get a custom profile done.

Try printing the image without the profile. I had the same problem with my Ricoh and now print without the profile and get better results.

I haven't transferred it yet, I was just wondering about the difference in the print on paper being so different. I'll try printing without the profile as you suggested. Thanks for the replies!
