 color palletes
Howdy
This is kinda long and probably seem silly for those of you in the know but its making me nuts.
I am trying to get my head around these color pallets. I have read dozens of articles on the net but still confused somewhat.
I use 3 printers.
* Epson c120 for inkjet transfers (setup to use color controls - espon vivid)
* OKI C5500 for laser transfers (setup to use advanced color and auto for color setting )
* Ricoh GX-7000 for dye sub (setup to use the icm provided by conde)
I know that each will print the same color diffferently than the other. Even if from the same color pallete.
In Corel I use the default RGB pallete. The powerdrive installed the colorsure pallete.
I am not sure of the difference between the two.
Other than the colorsure does show names for colors but uses COLORSURE 1 (which RGB values equal the Default RGB of NEON RED).
Then theres the other dozen or so palletes under the windows - color pallete.
In several articles I read several mentioned the TRU-MATCH pallete. But geesh tons of those colors and many look like shades of shades of colors. These tho I can't check the RGB values as the edit pallete box is greyed out. And I thought this one was CMYK based when I was reading about it.
Then theres coated and uncoated. what is the difference in these ?
Also when I go to run the corel vba to print a pallet swatch I see under RGB 4 other directories.(things/people/nature/misc/) Are those already included in the Default RGB pallete corel displays. ?
I assume that the different color palettes are cuz the manuf make their colors differently but for printing shirts/hardgoods is there one palette that will offer the best overall color matching/printing ?
Thanks
Mark
