Has anyone successfully printed fluro or metallic inks on Mimaki JV4? I am using Onyx 10.2.5.4 and have created a CMYKSS profile for spot color. I have assigned Orange and Green as Spot1 & Spot2. I have named my spot colors in illustrator & corel and export as both EPS & PDF. when i open my file in Onyx and sampled my colors with eye dropper, it reads 100% spot1 & 100% spot2.

When i hit print, the spot colors prints and fills out the artboard/background. It has not isolate my spot colours. it prints/fills out the entire page. my art file consist of the letters ABC in spot color sitting on top of a circle. when printed the spot color prints the square background with the circle and ABC in it. see attached file

I think the only way you are going to get fluorescent is using fluorescent ink?

Do not think there is a spot color for those.
