Hello,
we have an inkjet printer which is able to print on aluminum (under
anodised coating). It's working quite well so far we only have some big
problems with the color profile. Right now we have no good profile. Over
Gretag Macbeth we found a dealer who tried to create a CMYK profile for
us. The dealer told us, that they had some trouble to create the
profile. The main problem is, that the reflection of the aluminum is
very high. Usually the instruments measure the backscattered light and
so they get low signals especially for the bright colors. Nevertheless
they created a profile but there are some shifts in the colors (brown is
shifting to red for instance). It seems that a color measurement
instruments with an integrating sphere would work better. Actually we
need an instrument to measure the charts. For several reason I would
appreciate if I could us "Argyll CMS" to generate the profiles. Does
anyone see a chance to solve our problems with Argyll CMS? What device
could we buy?
Thank you,
Kai
