Hello all,
Here is my environment: Roland FJ-500, CMYKcmOG, ErgoSoft Poster Print, PMP 5, Eye-One
Been having a heck of a time confirming or denying some issues in regards to six color profiles and was hoping for some input.
1. Should I be using a specific Total Area Coverage test chart for my individual ink set combination; i.e. hexachrome specific where the black is a build of all six colors? If so, anyone know where to get one or should I delve into building one myself?
2. Working in PMP5 measure tool, whether your separation "CMYK Max" for a hexachrome profile should be your "total ink coverage", or should your "CMYK Max" be a little lower than the "total ink coverage" to compensate for orange and green in the mix?
Seems that I'm having the most trouble determining my TAC, which directly affects profile settings.
Thanks for clearing any clouds that you can!
