I am trying to print some deep blues with my PC60 using CMYK and have printed out various swatches with straight cyan and adding 10% increments of magenta to see what comes out. I noticed that when printing straight cyan it will also throw down about 5% yellow and 5% magenta and when you get to the end of the swatches these percentages increase, so I am unable to get true output of colours as the yellow will naturally green up the swatch.
I am using Illustrator 10 and XP.
and have the colour setting to emulate illustrator 6.
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong and what is the best colour settings that you have used to achieve a good result. I am not needing 100% accuracy just a good and fair printout.
All the reds, greens, yellows etc seem to print ok. Just the blues a pain.
There is no rip software used, just printing straight from illustrator.
