Just to add to what Scott has already said, you might try looking into the "Accusure" screening option in Onyx....Accusure is basically an RGB contone driver that uses the printer vendor's screening, ink limiting (via media type) and ink "separation" mode. If it is indeed an Epson SureColor, you might be better served taking advantage of what Epson has already determined is the best use of the extra inks for a particular media. In my experience, you will rarely do much better than what Epson has already come up with unless you have tons of experience with these printers.

Also tell us what media you're using as well as the media's ability to hold ink can dictate our usage of the Orange (some media will see a better gamut if you restrict the O and load up on the others inks while other media will benefit from O). The media plays a huge role in how successful the process and end results are.
