Yes you just do it.
No need to thank me.

But it would help to know your printer.

Didn't realize it was a printer specific thing. Thought it would be in the rip. I have a truevis sg2

It is always a specific thing. Different manufacturers go about it in specific ways.

I'm no help as I don't run white or clear in my shop but I found this for you.

Let us know if you got it to work.

We use the generic backlit profile in versaworks then check the box that says ignore default settings and there should be a 2 in the overprint box. That seems to work well for us but you should run a complete color chart this way because it changes the colors considerably.

You said Roland and Flexi. We use Flexi for design but Roland Versaworks for Rip and print. Sorry for the confusion.

We subscibe to Flexi Design which is $30 a month as apposed to $65 for the rip and print version. Versaworks was free with the printer. Other than that I don't know which way is better.
