The media file is invalid. Avery MPI1105 Profile.

[JamminSigns]

Has anyone else run into this? I downloaded it directly from Roland. All the specs are right for what I am running.

When I try to import the file it says "The media file is invalid".

The same error if I use "Add media from the internet" directly in VersaWorks.

Edit: tried the profile from Avery's site and same deal. Not 1 Avery profile works for me. Arlon & 3M load just fine.

Try run VersaWorks as Administtator.
Right click when you open VW and use Run as Admin

Aprreciate the suggestion, same result when run as Admin.

Make sure you are selecting TR2 as the ink type at the Roland profile center

 

[JamminSigns]

Yup had Tr2 checked.
CMYKcmOG - as ink profile

Left everything same shown and switched to Arlon those install np, switch back to Avery not a one.

Dang, this is our go to material for so much stuff really like to use their profile.

Just install Roland PCV4 cast vinyl profile, it wI’ll work fine

 

[JamminSigns]

I have been using PCV4: Premium Cast Vinyl on my older Roland for quite some time so I agree that's a great profile but am I
going to limit myself as that profile is only available for the CMYK ink set.

Also, it has a maximum of 8 passes; the new CMYKcmOG profiles have double that, with 16 passes. It seems that might restrict quality.

Is there a nice CMYKlmOG profile similar to the RolandDGA CMYK one?

What model, printer and ink set do you have? The PCV4 profile is available for all printers and all ink sets.

Different ink setup though.

CMYK Light black Or Gr

I am using CMYK Lmagenta Lcyan Or Gr

thought it was advised to only use profiles that match your ink setup.

Plus that confuses me because Green and Light black are in the same tray. Yet that profile has both?

Edit: tried the profile you linked and it even reports it as so, cannot be used with the ink type of the current printer settings.
