Ink Palette

How to add your custom print colors to the Design Studio

InkSoft comes with a default/general ink palette ready to go! We recommend creating a custom ink palette that reflects the colors you use to print.

Keep in mind, users in the design studio can still upload or use any color artwork. This palette will be available for color replacement and for art creation in the Design Studio. 

Getting Started: 

• Hover over Settings
• Hover over Advanced
• Select Ink Palette

Printer Ink Colors

• Maps: Click the Map (color palette) name to edit.
• Colors: The color drop down will allow you view all colors assigned to that palette.
• Stores: Here you can assign/unassign the color palette to any of your stores. Note: if a palette isn't assigned to any store, it will be applied to all stores.
• Select the trash can icon to delete a custom color palette.
• Click the plus "+" icon to create a new color palette.
• Save changes

Note: Do not delete a default map unless you are sure you will never need it again. It's always best to un-assign it from your Store(s) than to delete it. Deleting a color map will permanently delete them from your account.
