roland 545ex colors issues

so I have this printer along with a sp540v and epson surecolor, my epson and sp540v print very close to whatever color I try to match, but the 545ex is just way off, I know this machine predates the dinosour era, but when it comes to cutting after laminating is very accurate my issue is the colors. i was wondering for anyone who used this machine the 545ex before what were the settings in vw to come close to pms or even screen colors? both vw and the firmware on the printer are upto date or the latest allow version.

we have used a sc545-ex for almost 10 years
bought it used (actually "can't be fixed" condition)

you really need to build your own profiles and you will get GREAT COLOR

we have our sc545-ex 20 years old & a mutoh vj-1617h hybrid (2018) and our color matches so closely you would have trouble telling me which machine printed what

you can look for canned profiles for your machine (there are many) & for the substrates you print on but it will never match doing things the right way
