So- I tried the 2 color matching setup and found something interesting, with color matching off, the light colors are bang on, but the red is red orange, and the darker shades of colors are essentially all nearly black with a 2-5% difference between each one.
Color matching off looks the best for all the light colors and blends of colors, but the red is junk and the dark colors anything with 80% black is difficult to distinguish without an extreme amount of sunlight.
Default turns all light colors to weird shades that doesnt remotely resemble the screen but all the 80% black colors looks great, and the red is nearly acceptable. CYM is off as well.
The machine tells me Mimaki expanded color is outdates and will ruin my prints (didnt try printing, and couldnt find updates).
What am I looking at to get a better general range of colors? Using Avery mpi1000 series matte vinyl but I only have gloss profiles..... because mimaki.
I know these threads are beated to death, but what I really want to know is- does anyone have a good profile for these printers that they can share?
