    Hello, am seeking guidance in getting better quality / more accurate RGB prints from a Roland 6 color. I have been reviewing different color meters such as the X-Rite etc, though am not sure what others may be relying on to calibrate and create custom profiles for their printers. Can anyone...
  9. HELP! I'm Pulling my hair out trying to fix this overspray issue on my FB700

    As you can hopefully see from the image, there is an over spray in one direction and not the other. This image is flipped 90 degrees so the spray is horizontally not vertically. Ive done everything I can think of to fix it. manual calibrations of bidi, Head-head, jet map. I even wiped the...

    A recent Demo on the Epson GS6000 highlighted the importance of getting the Input ICC right. I have always used the ISO coated v4 to get accurate colour. Prints lack POP and I'm looking to find out what you think about ONYXCMY.ICC as an input profile. It looks much bigger on the gammut map...
