edge evolution color help

hey this may seem like a stupid question and i'll know it'll make some people shake their heads but anyways. i have the edge evolution and i cannot mix the colors to get a white looking background. if anybody on here knows what %'s to use with red, green, and/or blue mixed together to make a white let me know, thanks for your time

With light, that's correct. 100% on all 3. Inks work differently, you mix all 3 colors and you get black. Inks are red, cyan (blue) and yellow. Light is RGB (red, green, blue).

Close, glc - pigment primaries are actually magenta (reddish), cyan (bluish) and yellow. Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Yes - try that. It should work according to the physics of light. However, I've never tried it. But, you won't hurt anything by changing the color values.
