    Hi

    I’m looking for a close match to Pantone 2592c , I can’t get close on the printer and none of my swatches have anything close.

    Any help appreciated

    many thanks

    I am getting two varied cmyk values, might be worth a try 10.90.0.35 or 61.88.0.0

    If it helps my pantone swatch says it can not be matched in cmyk but can be in RGB but unfortunately I don’t have pantone bridge to give you the numbers.
    No idea why but if I export to our rip (rasterlink) as rgb I often get a good approximation of RGB even though the printer is obviously CMYK output 😕

    You could also try 119 -15-255, it’s pretty close on our swatches of printed colours but we run mimakis and rasterlink and the colour shifts will probably be different on your set up, but worth a try maybe.
