Mimaki JV33-160 Colors off?

Using Flexi to print but only printed a handful of stuff so far but most of the colors seem to print a lot darker than the file shows. Usually way darker almost black. Orange is red, blue is a dark navy blue, purple is gray. Tried changing profiles and doesn’t seem like they change much at all. Yellow seems like the only color that prints consistent. Some colors seem to pool ink as well alot heavier in the blue than any other color. Didn’t know if this seemed like a printer itself issue a program issue?

It looks like you're designing in RGB which isn't totally wrong or anything but it does mean you're going to be able to select colors in your design software that simply aren't going to print perfectly on a CMYK printer. Basically, the colors you chose are out of gamut for your machine.
