hi egg
strange, think my eyesight was going!, have tried again and everything is printing out matching really, really well, dont know what happened last night!! but i know it was crazy colour matching at the time!

was importing a 3D image from xara3d, say importing but perhaps i was just opening the file instead of importing it, then adding a few things in xara x, would this have caused any colour differences?

(got an epson stylus photo 750, probably just printing at 360 dpi)
