Anybody using the latest Fogra Media Wedge?


me not yet.

If you are, what sort of results are you getting for patch A22 -- it's ruining my approval stickers by scoring 4.4dE on ISO Coated v2 :-(

Running GMG SemiMatte paper through an Epson 9880. Everything apart from patch A22 is incredibly tight.

I guess is a gamut issue: A22 is one of only two patches that are really close to the bottom of the color space in MediaWedge3:

SAMPLE_NAME SAMPLE_ID CMYK_C CMYK_M CMYK_Y CMYK_K LAB_L LAB_A  LAB_B
        A22        22      0    100      0    100 10.42 13.93   1.35
        B22        46    100      0      0    100 10.41 -8.20 -10.25

the the next two dark patches are significantly lighter:

SAMPLE_NAME SAMPLE_ID CMYK_C CMYK_M CMYK_Y CMYK_K LAB_L LAB_A  LAB_B
        A21        21      0      0      0    100 16.00  0.00   0.00
        C22        70      0      0    100    100 15.71 -3.08  11.68

How about other dark patches (taken directly from FOGRA39)?:

SAMPLE_ID CMYK_C CMYK_M CMYK_Y CMYK_K LAB_L  LAB_A  LAB_B
     1262      0    100      0    100 10.42  13.93   1.35
     1265     40    100      0    100  9.02  10.92  -1.89
     1266    100      0      0    100 10.41  -8.20 -10.25
     1267    100     40      0    100  9.08  -2.40  -9.23
     1268    100    100      0    100  7.88   5.79  -5.94
     1271      0    100     40    100 10.73  11.61   4.24
     1274     40    100     40    100  9.56   8.14   1.37
     1275    100      0     40    100 10.65 -11.29  -4.22
     1276    100     40     40    100  9.57  -5.16  -4.00
     1277    100    100     40    100  8.23   2.66  -2.38
     1283     40    100    100    100 10.13   4.96   4.97
     1285    100     40    100    100 10.16  -7.44   2.67
     1286    100    100    100    100  8.71  -0.07   2.06
     1399    100     85     85    100  8.88  -0.95   1.18
     1400     80     65     65    100  9.74  -1.01   0.31

BTW.: IMHO it's a pity that FOGRA didn't include 100/85/85/100 or 100/100/100/100 into the new MediaWedge -- these patches have the least Delta E to 0/0/0, i.e they are most dark and neutral colors in FOGRA39 and good benchmarks for the lower gamut boundary of a proofing systems:

SAMPLE_ID CMYK_C CMYK_M CMYK_Y CMYK_K LAB_L LAB_A LAB_B DE00_to0
     1286    100    100    100    100  8.71 -0.07  2.06 5.542540
     1399    100     85     85    100  8.88 -0.95  1.18 5.575778
