LH-100 Yellow?

I have a simple question. I'm bringing a used 6042 MKII back to life, using LH-100 inks, and I opened the new bottle of yellow and it looks gold to me. Not even close to yellow. I have an older 6042 running LH-100 and I know the yellow in that is bright yellow.

Is there something wrong with this bottle of ink or did I order the wrong thing? From the part numbers, it's the same part numbers as all the other colors, except a Y in it. Like normal, I have emailed the people it was bought from and asked for help and gotten no answer, so I'm back here. Without this forum, I'm not sure I could own a Mimaki these days.

Looks correct. Remember, when jetting on a surface, it is put down a lot thinner than the droplets you're seeing.

Also, for LH-100, I use STS, about $100 less per liter and their chips are programmed to last 2 years. Though, some folks are skittish about aftermarket inks.
