If you care to send the characterization data my way, I could create you a profile using ColorToolbox. Have you tried Argyll? I would try to avoid editing the profile first. The other thing I would look at is the "gamut" of the device in its characterized state, it's possible that the Reds and Magentas are not "saturated" enough for the colors you want to match? I ran into a similar issue, lately, and as soon as I loosened the ink restriction on Yellow and Magenta, all of a sudden my problem was solved.

The profile comes out fine as far as tone and gray. The Delta E's for Reds and Magentas are over six. I also tried more sampling with the Isis spectro. The results are still the same with either profiling application. The only solution I can come up with is to purchase a profile editor. The EFI editor is a bit expensive and comes with a profile maker which I do not need. Does anyone have another possible solution to this?

What RIP are you using? You mentioned both Onyx and EFI…which one are you using to create the calibration/linearization? Which Epson solvent printer? Epson 60600 or 80600? You say delta E’s are > 6 in reds/magentas….but compared to what exactly? What is your reference? If you’re round-tripping the profile, delta E’s should be very tight…but if you’re comparing to standard CMYK or RGB space, deltas could be huge depending on color gamut. I’ve profiled and used in production the Epson 50670, 60600 and have at least tested and profiled the 80600 (awesome printer)….and have used Onyx Thrive, EFI Fiery XF for RIPs and i1Profiler for building profiles….never had any problems.
