    Hey.

    We have a very strange problem with our 800, all of the paper stocks which is uncoated has some very strange color, very yellow, im not talking a bit off - its WAY off. i think its like all yellow halftones are automaticly set to 100% yellow
    To temp fix this i have changed all the uncoated stocks to coated matte, now the colors is o.k

    somebody tried anything similar?

    Delete the stock, recreate it then re calibrate on that stock. Probably the LUT are corrupt for that stock

    It happened on stocks i just created today, and on stocks i created months ago. Only similarity is that they are all uncoated. Any changes on fiery, calibration, icc etc have no effect.

    Is it a fiery? Check for any patch updates.

    Yeah, but it also happened on the internal pages printed from diagnostics.

    Some table on the PCUI containing TRC for all uncoated stocks was way off.

    Did you get it fixed?
    Did you have to reload the PCUI?

    Yeah i got it fixed without a reload.

    The tech could run a automatic setup i think it has something to do with the LUT Mark mentioned. It adjust some table for either coated, uncoated or both stocks.
