Colours not printing as they used to.

Hi, I hope someone may be able to help me.

I make small waterslide decals on an Alps printer.

 

Until recently I did all my work in Corel 3 and I had a very good range of colours that would print in a solid form. Some would print in a grainy or spotted? way but all was good. The more solid the colour prints the better as it means less of the base colour of the model shows through the decal.

 

A while ago I upgraded to Corel 6 and since then even the colours that used to print solid now come out in a grainy way.

I am using the same computer. The only thing that has changed is the version of Corel. I use a compaq presario with windows vista.

 

How can I fix this? Have I got the settings wrong? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Alan,

    I would output the image you are printing to pdf and try printing it that way. If it prints good then problem is coming from Corel. If the print quality does not improve then check your print drivers or maybe re-install them. If CD is causing them then check settings in the print window and make sure all the seetting are set to default. Good luck.
