  • Unabale to achieve same colour when printing

    Posted by Martin Cole on September 20, 2018 at 10:03 am

    This is driving me nuts.

    I’m printing a blue water pattern image for wrapping the backs of a few vans.

    Its saved in the versaworks rip Q, so all settings are the same.

    But every time I go to print the same image the blue is different, not as vibrant as previous.
    Have re-loaed from Corel and gone through the motions but still not quite the same.

    any ideas appeciated

    Is it CMYK colour set in Corel, and You’re printing in RGB, or vice versa?

    Have you changed ink sets since last printing these?

    Thanks guys, Neil thats what I thought it may be but all matching and same set of inks Phill

    BUT…after trying for the past hour I have finally achieved the colour, printing from the saved ripped file.
    I re-booted corel maybe this did it as I may have changed something but I don’t know what,. a complete mystery 🙁

    Happened to me in the past:
    1) Saving PDF as “high resolution print”
    2) Saving PDF as “illustrator default”
    Same file.
    Same printing profile.
    Different print results.
