Title: Re: CMYK Working Space
My Onyx RIP offers me both a defaultCMYK and a
BigCMYK but both are tiny in to the space achievable with my
medias.
Yes most customers supply us with CMYK files but
most don't know why, or even if they have changed them from one working space to
another in any of the multiple design packages that they run. So I am unable to
establish the history of the files so I don't want to limit the colours anymore
by restricting the space further still. So I am still unclear to what I should
do.

HP developed (and was using for their laser
printers) a profile called BigCMYK or something like that.. Supposedly
something you could use as a working space or as a source profile when you
wanted saturated max gamut prints but keeping a balanced and natural (or
at least not blowing off details) look.
Dont know what became of it,
though... If it actually ships with their printers or
not...
Its a
gamut extension with small hue shift called CMYK+ and found in the EFI rips
for the DJ series. It takes offset type generic CMYK and moves it to the gamut
boundaries of the printer , a sort of repurposing of limited formatted data
for presentation purposes.
