re: Why don't drivers use a CMYK profile?
I've just run into my next big question: We are test driving
Heidelberg's PrintOpen 4.0 (MAC) on our Roland CJ-500 6-ink printer
(currently cmykOrGr - hex ink set). The basic premise we understood
was we could profile our media as RGB for each print process and this
would give us reasonably accurate output profiles for our third party
media. The canned media profiles which came with the printer are all
CMYK. The canned PANTONE. Hexachrome. Roland device profile is MCH6.
The RGB profiles we create are not recognized by the Roland
Colorchoice software RIP as output or input, so now we are back to
CMYK, guesswork, lots of patchs, more conversions and limitations to
our RGB output workflow.
We are not adverse to spending reasonable money to achieve results
inhouse. Can anyone out there recommend a 6-ink/multichannel
profiling package? (That perhaps works with the ColorSavvy CM2s
spectro)
