I purchased F170 and ink came with it. I'm trying to get the colors to print correctly using corel draw and getting bad results.
A gradient from purple to orange to yellow: orange is about missing and purple is not vivid. All colors are muted.
Plain orange comes out pinkish.
CMYK are not bright
Greyscale from black to white comes out with a brownish sepia look - it is not using just black.
Purple/pink sunset picture comes out mostly blueish, no pink at all while darks appear appropriately dark.
I did NOT shake the bottles when I first added the ink, would that be causing it?
I ran print head tests and they came out fine. No breaks in the lines. Also did a print head cleaning for fun.
There is also some smearing on glossy paper.
Epson Printer settings:
Paper type: general purpose/rigid
quality: high
Color correction: off (using corel color correction)
bidirectional off
print density 0%
Corel printer settings:
Color conversions performed by Corel
Color profile Epson SC-F100 series general purpose(rigid)
Preserve pure black
Rendering intent Perceptual
