I use efi fiery XF at work, but swung by a friends business last night with my i1Publish kit to help him build a few profiles for his new setup. I forget the exact model number, but it was an HP laytex printer driven by Caldera VisualRIP.
I fired up EasyMedia, and right out of the gate I got hung up on the cyan strip for ink transitions. It was asking me to verify each pass as I read each primary strip, but it kept complaining about deviations on verification. The dark inks read without a problem, so I went back and just manually adjusted the transitions and moved on to linearization (one and done, no issues). After that came ink limiting, and the inks were bleeding like mad. I went from 400% to 350% to 320% to 280%, and nothing changed. I then dropped the global ink limit from 400 to 320% and still nothing. I gave up and told him I'd need to look into it and come back another time.
Was I doing something wrong? I've profiled media using Profilemaker, Onyx ProductionHouse, EFi Fiery XF, and i1Profiler without any issues.
It didn't help that I couldn't find any documentation.
Any pointers or help?
Thanks!
