If the color gamut is not large enough, you might want try a higher Total Ink Limit value. (see below).
Did I choose the right Printer Resolution?
for best image quality and color consistency you should use a resolution of at least 720x1440, or 1200x1200.
Did I choose the right measurement condition?
Most spectrophotometers have 3 different measurement conditions: M0, M1, and M2.
...
Measurement Condition | Media Fluorescent Brightener Level | L* | a* | b* |
---|---|---|---|---|
M0 | High | Value is higher (1 or 2 units) | Usually not effected | Value is slightly negative (bluer) by up to 1 unit |
Medium | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | |
Low | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | |
M1 | High | Value is higher (1 or 2 units) | Usually not effected | Value is negative (bluer) by up to 4 units |
Medium | Value is less high (1 or less) | Usually not effected | Value is less negative (bluer) by up to 2 units | |
Low | Value is slightly higher (less than 1) | Usually not effected | Value is slightly negative (bluer) by up to 1 unit | |
M2 | High | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | Usually not effected |
Medium | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | |
Low | Usually not effected | Usually not effected | Usually not effected |

Did I choose the right Printer Resolution?
Choose a target profile or color standard for The color gamut should be large enough to meet the needs of your intended use of this media configuration. The white point measurements are shown for both the selected profile and this Media Configuration; with the measurement condition shown in ().
You can choose the CIE color difference method used to compare the white point values.
Estimated Color Gamut results are shown below.
For more information on how to evaluate these results, click the Help button If the gamut is too small you can try printing the Total Ink Limit charts and increasing the total ink limit value by 0.1 or 0.2 units; check the chart with a loupe for artifacts at the higher levels.
