Default Printing on Oracal 3164 - Color Issues on VersaCamm
Hi! I am printing window decals on Oracal 3164. In VersaWorks I have tried the Generic Vinyl and Prepress settings as well as Generic Vinyl and Max Density settings. I am still not getting rich solid colors. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Maybe you could try a ESM or grey glue profile. But if you can change the colors in your art to roland color system colors, you'll more than likely get rich saturated colors.

Oracal has profiles. I downloaded it for the VP540. Not sure which printer you have but if you go to this link and hit support on top you can choose yours.
ORACAL USA : Products : ORAJET* 3164* Soft Calendered PVC Inkjet Media

I ended up finding the profile for my printer (I missed it when I looked the first time). Made a world of difference!
