Roland Fj-52 ink to use?

[anozira02]

Can anyone give me a hint of what are the 6 colors best to be used in this printer. When I got this machine it had water-base pigment ink in it such as black, cyan, magenta, orange, and green and yellow. It is hard to find orange and green ink for it, was wondering why not just use Magenta, Magenta Light and Cyan, Cyan L. with Yellow and Black.

If nobody chimes in, I would call Dave at Solvent Printer Conversions.
He's a guru with the old Rolands and will give you honest answers.

I have mine set up with the LC and LM. I have never tried the green/orange.

One reason I stay as I do is the I1 Extream that I use for making profiles won't do a orange/green profile. I do a lot of art stuff with canvas etc. and I find the LC/LM works fine. I also use cavepaint inks so the reason for needing new profiles.

With orange/green you might be able to hit different colors but again unless you print side by side you might not notice.

On ebay right now there are a few carts up for bid. Two are the orange and green.
