One of the problems you run into with spot-color is that when you print a job with large solid color, you risk having trouble with the print head banding or streaking, and this imperfection jumps out at you. But if you create full-color artwork with photo images, textures and blends, the imperfections in the print are not as noticeable. If you need to print solid spot-colors, add some breaks in the art or texture and use graduated blending from one color to the next to create a little interest.
