Can't get royal blue, any ideas?

[Kaz]

I need to do a mug with royal blue text on, but can't get it right.

I'm setting it as cyan in the colour palette in corel, and it's printing out a greenish-grey, and pressing as a yucky green shade.

I'm using a ricoh with the powerdriver profile and trupix paper.

Any ideas on how to get it royal blue are most welcome.

Thanks

You've got the substrate set to Ceramic?

Sorry Mark, yes, I have.

I managed to do one last year, but for the life of me can't remember how I managed it, lol

Junior member asking a Senior member the obvious - paper the right way round?

LOL, senior member goes for nothing, it just means I spout a lot more drivel than you

Yup, paper right way round, everything is as it was last time I printed.

I'm baffled as to why my royal blue is coming out yucky green when pressed

my blue (from epson) would look yaky green if pressed for not long enoughor to cold.

180 at 180, same as usual for my mugs, Paul

Will just need to go try again on the now wasted mug

I reckon you need more magenta in the mix. Pull it back toward the blue. Having said that...... I know naaathing when it comes to this bit of the game.

We have often had the opposite problem of a royal blue heading toward the purple side with it having too much magenta. This is where we have printed of a mug full of blue pantone squares.

I know its a long shot but how much inks have you left. We had a prob similar with near empty cart r
