I need a straight answer. Is it possible? Please do not refer me to the "Printing with WH/MS, Matching Specific Colors (ONYX RIP)" PDF it's a European guide that states 3L may not be available in all countries. From what I've read on here and all the back lit and front lit ICC profiles I've downloaded it seems that 2-layer is the best that the Shaq infested company EPSON can offer to its US customers. ONYX says I need to take a 500-dollar class and Epson says to contact ONYX. If there is a profile out there, please link it or if I'm just missing something point it out to me. Sorry I'm just so fed up with the "in theory it should work" answers. THANKS.

Is 3 Layer Printing Possible on a NORTH AMERICAN Epson s80600L

Same, very frustrating Epson just demanded I tell them where my information came from and then told me they had no idea.

I cant imagine C/W/C is going to turn out well on a solvent machine, especially with no real dry time between the layers.
I'm looking to print color/white/white just wondering if it's possible
Yes, you can program any delay you like between layers in Onyx. The printer can do a white sublayer, wait, roll back and then print color.
The problem seems to be that you can't set Onyx up to print color-white-color or maybe the printer driver doesn't allow for it.

Our Epson S70 series did it with Onyx. I used the European guide you listed for my "how to" as a basic guide to understand how to adjust the print settings in Onyx to make it work correctly as needed in each case.
I no longer have those machines and have only have S60 series now, so no longer use that feature but I can't imagine it was done away with.
I know we have a local partner that DOES print white on their S80 series with Onyx (in the USA) for us a couple times a year when we need it.
Maybe different versions of Onyx (thrive vs postershop, etc) may or may not have it?

That is reassuring. The problem I'm running into is I've read the PDF but cannot find an icc profile with the 3-layer option and if I'm being honest I haven't the knowledge or time to set up an entirely custom profile (plus what if it is no longer possible). I'm open to trying but my manager would kill me if I spent a day setting up a profile just to discover a 3 layer overflood is not possible.
