Here is a post by Amadou Diallo on Luminous Landscape printer forum: “The newer printers from Canon and HP have reds and blues that are more accurately described as orange and violet, respectively. StudioPrint RIP even lists them in ink channels as Orange/Red and Violet/Blue. Attached is a linearization from the Canon 5000. You have CMYK followed by RGB. The additional inks are designed to augment the basic 4 color set. For reasons that only color scientists fully understand it makes more sense to have orange and purple for mixing with the primaries.” You can also see the ink colors for the iPF5000 (photo by Jim_H_WY) below and additional information on weights of inks, etc.
