I will comment on what I know for FS 19 and the L560 When dealing with PMS Colors this has become an issue for some and gift for others. Regardless of intent, do keep a current Pantone color bridge. Use Color Correction for Pantone CMYK and Turn off color correction for Formula matches. I keep...

I have a L560 and for curing issues like this, I would simply increase the interpass delay. not by much, a little goes a long way. Curing temps is something that I try to avoid, when printing IJ 180. If I really need to, I do so in small steps. These adjustments can be made on the fly. I do...
