I am a graphic artist for a screen printer. We just recently made a major leap from CorelDraw 11 to X6. I am having a problem in that when I use Pantone colors they look correct on my monitor (Matches Pantone book), they look fine when converted to .jpgs, but they do not always print out correctly from my printer. As an example Pantone 375 is a lime green, but it prints out like a darker Kelly green.
I know x6 has a lot of color management options. But there are too many options and I am confused with what to change. So far all changes have had no effect on the print outs.
What make and model printer? Also is it postscript?
I have exactly the same problem. We print a lot of different media, mainly labels and when converting the colour to Pantone, we get some strange results. I have tried experimenting with very similar shades but in Pantone/CMYK/RGB - see attached.
