    Hi,

    I am designing the graphics's for my friends food company and I want to find out the 8 exact block colours for printing on an 8 colour Printer (guava) (I think) It's for custom printed food stand-up pouches.. Hmmmm I feel rather silly not knowing the key colours :/


    Thank You you for reading :)

    8 Colour printer

    I suggest you contact your printer.

    The 8 colours will be Cyan, Magentta, Yellow, Black.
    The other 4 could be for spot colours ie pantone, varnish, gamut expanding colours (Red Green Blue) etc

    Maybe it's 8 color SPOT all with pantone or 8 color PROCESS offset printing (CMYK, LC, LM, LY, LK)
