The prints coming out of my epson me-100 are coming out kinda magenta-ish, and kinda grainy dirty, especially noticeble on the blacks.. can anybody help?

I've ow tried printing in photoshop having photoshop manage colors instead of the printer, but haven't tried printing it on mugs yet, no shirts available for now. I've also cleaned the print nozzle using the head cleaner utility.

That will transfer to the mug...
If your nozzles check is good, do a cleaning and also check your humidity. Winter is notorious for causing static electricity issues because of how dry the air gets. Especially if you have a furnace....every time it turns on it is drying your shop out (or house). We use humidifiers on our furnaces and humidifiers in our print rooms to stop this on wide format printers.

Yeah, I already ruined a lot a mugs trying to fix this. I already did a print head cleaning too, I used that head cleaning utility. I live in a pretty tropical location, no winter.. it probably isn't that.

Thanks. Should I just buy a new printer? I really don't want to buy another one, if only I could find a way to fix this.

That might be a quick fix...but I would want to figure out what is going on personally. If you have work to get done you may want to do just replace it. At some point it isn't worth the trouble to fix, the printers are pretty cheap in the grand scheme of things.
