Frustrated Edge 2 owner when cmyk printing

95% of the time I print on the edge 2 in spot color, every thing is fine.
When I try process printing, colors never match what is on the screen.
Using omega 4 and signlab 9.1, doesn't matter.
Where do start changing something.

A pdf file colors look fine but when printing its off.
doesn't matter if photo or just an art file.
sunflower yellow in adobe illustrator pdf but when cmyk printed more yellow/green.
the sins of buying used equipment, no training. But if I print an inkjet proof, color is fine.

In GSPPlot, click into the 123 Print options module and turn off "Color Correction". Next select from the drop down menu the profile named Gerber Edge II 300 DPI CMYK. Click OK and proceed to print the process color job. See if you like the color better. This particular profile was pointed out to me years ago and it seems to work very well for pretty much any job I run.

Thanks Mr. Weiss, the changes worked, now printed color resembles what is on the screen.
Now I can try to solve the pausing while printing issue next.
