| Software Settings |
The Heavy Weight Coated setting in most RIPs is appropriate; however, we recommend a custom ICC profile for optimal results. Please refer to www.lexjet.com for ICC profiles for some printers. |
| Software Settings |
For the best and most consistent results, a profile should be created using an external color calibrator in conjunction with your RIP and color matching software.
