I am wanting to put together a print test image, and I would like to have swatches of each of the 12 ink colors - not blended any of the other colors, just the pure ink, one color at a time.

I have Googled and searched the all the specs I can find, but I have came up empty handed.

Does anyone know the RGB values of each of the 12 colors in the Canon LUCIA EX ink set?

I think you can print those out if you can get your printer into service mode.

Can't you print a nozzle check or something similar and measure the patches with a spectro?

If you want RGB values, you have to specify the color space.

That's right.

I didn't think the whole process all the way through. Then rendering intent and so on.

I was hoping to add pure ink swatches in my test image, but it looks like I will be having to go with the Service Mode.

Thanks for the reply,

Rad
