Mimaki cjv 150/160 8-color CMYKlclmOr

Hi, Looks like Profile master 3 cost around $2800. It's a bit rich. Are there any other hardware/software combination that should be sufficient to create profiles? I have never been able to print red, it always comes out pink, it's hard to find a profile for 8-color printers for any material so...

We haven't solved this problem yet. We've re-installed all icc profiles and in rasterlink done a "check the matching of device profiles" with icc of 20-30 different similar materials. All reds still comes out pink. I was wondering, if material color management can't be turned off, maybe it's...

Yes it's true, something is not right

Thanks, good idea.

Ok Thanks, Yes, by the title I mean I want to disable management until I have the resources to buy a calibrator so I don't need to replace every color since that gives me better results, I'm using a Pantone Reference Sheets. I guess It's manual reading time.

I haven't tried those no, but I'm having trouble with straight CMYK colors, so it's not the sRGB->CMYK management I want to disable. I don't know in how many places the CMYK value is being managed, but I'm thinking Media ICC would be one. There is something that makes a 0 100 100 0 value print...

By "control files", do you mean the test print in the printer menu?

Hi! We are using an 8 color setup and having a hard time getting correct colors. It doesn't really matter what profile we use, red comes out pink, when shifting profiles it comes out different shades of pink. Never red. That said, If we force colors in the "replace color" function (0 100 100 0...

Thanks so mush for taking your time. I think I'll look into the color management "pipeline" a bit deeper. Making custom profiles seem expensive since I haven't got a colorimeter and they are kinda pricey but I guess it's one of few options to fix this.

Thanks, that's interesting. When using the correct ICC for the media and all and we never use sRGB stuff, only CMYK vectors. Where else could it need to be "profiled"?, I mean, the colors differ quite a bit.

It probably is. But am I also wrong to assume that the printer is trying to widen the gaumut by translating the colors from 4 to 8 in its own way? I mean if I give it c=0 m=100 y=100 k=0 it would also use the other 4 colors (Lc Lm Lk Or) right? Something is happening when I force the colors to C...

Well, speed increase is nice and all, but I also suspect we'll have a better time matching colors on a 4-color setup. For instance now, if we print 0 100 100 0 it turns out a bit pink'ish. I'm not sure exactly how rasterlink translates that into our 8-color setup but if we force 0 100 100 0 with...

Thanks! About the parameters... those are in the menu of the machine right? In rasterlink, under "Quality"->"Inkset" I see SS21 CMYKLcLmLkOr is selected (other options are SS21 CMYKLcLm and ES3 CMYKLcLm) Will rasterlink detect my 4-color setting and create new 4-color presets for me in the...

Hi! Our printer came with the 8-color setup. After about 2 years we figure that 4-colors might be a much better solution. Technician wants $3k to change it. Is it possible to change it yourself? I can't seem to find any step by step guides on this subject. Thanks!

Hi! Did you ever come across doing this? Was it hard?
