New Mimaki JV100-160 ICC help

[signstation]

Hi everyone,
We have just bought a new Mimaki JV100-160 printer, the machine prints great through rasterlink, but we are having problems hitting colors through flexisign's production manager.
Currently, SAi only have one CMYK profile for this machine! it isn't good. I have reached out to SAi, but they have advised me to buy a spectrometer and make my own.
Here's the problem with that....$$$$
Is there a company that rents these? or does anyone that owns a JV100-160, have a custom ICC that they can sell me?
We are using Flexi 22.
Thanks,
Andy.

I've been meaning to try this but haven't had a chance to. You might be able to install the MImaki profiles onto Flexi. If you go to this link: https://mimaki.com/product/inkjet/i-roll/jv100-160/download.html

Choose your ink type and configuration and it will give you a list of profiles to download. They are ICC files so in the past I've been able to install them onto Flexi without an issue but sometimes MImaki ones don't work for some reason. It's worth a shot.

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately the profile from Mimaki won't work. I've tried a few variants.
I appreciate your help.

I don't have it unfortunately.

I have a couple of other profiles for that unit. I found them for my screen printer who purchased that machine... Give me your email and I will send them as I can't seem to attach them here

Did you try to get the profiles from your media vendors? I know general formulations make them as well as 3M and you might even want to call Grimco.
