yes of course, the old anti-color RIP. Managing color upstream doesn't seem to be available to them as they are using Photoshop 4.... sorry a bit punchy.
Anyway, we've build a fair number of Lightjet profiles as well and just for curiosity I graphed one relative to popular working spaces.
I don't know what mechanism was used to drive the Lightjet but I can assure you that its gamut is significantly larger than ColorMatch. Adobe RGB will get most of it but still clip the most yellow and magenta colors.
Did you say you had run a profile on their system. If they are not color managed I would expect that their gamut is larger than ColorMatch and that they have "been told" to use it and find it is "safe"
Sometimes I wish I could send these people a howler (the screaming letter in Harry Potter books)...
Regards,
Steve
