I am having trouble with VW changing random ST,DP, and DK spot colors- if you look at this screenshot you will see what I am talking about.
If you open the VW spot chart you cannot go into the file format>spot color>detail so I am going to try to attach the same chart that Roland
sent me that you can. The library cmyk values are correct but the output to printer values are skewed. You may have to scan thru a few of the
above mentioned color types but I can actually see the difference in the thumbnail colors to tell they are going to print a differnent color. If I
change the output cmyk below it prints correctly. Roland thinks I am crazy I think. Thank you sir. Gene

What I found....
I had the same problem with some colors on my VS-640. I found it was the default material profile. I downloaded a 3M profile and use that as my default. The 3M profiles actually print great without using a lot of ink like some of the generic preloaded profiles.
We have to adjust some PMS colors but that is expected. Since changing the default profile and actually printing with them, our Roland colors always print perfect.
The only con to the 3M profiles is not having a faster print speed option. The profiles are all for a standard speed. If we try and use the preloaded profiles for faster print speed the color problem starts again.
