Grimco hooking it up overnighting an i1 basic pro3.
Any tips on how to proceed once it arrives so I can get this job to print?
After that I'll dive into making custom profiles, but for now, fixing my output to match the original vans is priority #1.
2.5 hours from NYC, but they closed at 1pm today. I called them at noon, they had not options to overnight one to me. Had a buddy in the city run over to pick it up for me. He didn't make it until 1:05 and they were closed.. So no luck there.
This is more helpful. So maybe the printer is not "delivering" the same as last week. But the spot colors printouts are the same.. so how could that be? That's what I don't get. And I really don't get how re calibrating would play into that case.
They were originally printed with perceptual I believe. Not at the computer now to check. Do you know what settings in onyx could possibly have changed the appearance of my pri nts so I can try that?
My best guess, something along the lines of what David marshal said above. That rendering intent has somehow been changed? Or for some reason rip/printer deciding cut off an ink channel or processing the job differently or something?
In onyx job editor, printer Media settings tab I've tried...
I don't have onyx test prints to compare. But I have these spot color charts we printed about a month ago. I'm holding those up to what I printed 2 minutes ago. All of these spot colors, which are mostly pantones, look exactly the same to me.
Thanks for explaining delta 3.
I take it you are also suggesting to recalibrate the profile?
Could you or someone explain how this could help?
- I have a handful of manufacture profiles, they all (for the past 3 years with this printer/rip) print very similarly, some a little better than...
Bottom decal was printed a couple weeks ago, top one just printed. They look the same. This is the best example that I have a control sample of on hand and is similar grays. So why would this print the same and the wrap differently? Same profile used.
As to environments changing:
-I assume (business owner here) a couple ink carts have been swapped out, but always fresh oem ink- and also spot colors/pantones print correctly still.
-Same roll of vinyl being used as original 1 week old print - have also tried different vinyls and same results-...
13 years, never had a color shift issue before. I've never created a profile, only download them from 3M and Oracal, and used to use roland profiles when I had a roland. Onyx says the next step is to go buy a i1 and adjust the profile so the new output matches what the profile used to look...
I have no idea what that means, tried googling 3 de00 shift, didn't help. I'm guessing it's bad. Any idea how to fix it or why these colors suddenly print this much differently a week ago?
Are there any settings in onyx or on the printer that could be causing this? Because reprinting from the rip archive causes the shift, and so does re-ripping. I've also realized now that it's every panel from this wrap is printing wrong now. It seems even the reds have shifted slightly. So...
Having an issue, printer is not outputting same colors on reprint. Trying to reprint a wrap panel, was originally printed 1 week ago. When trying to reprint (not re-ripping) the gray colors are all off, a much "cooler" print (see pic). I've tried everything I can think of, checked settings...
