If you haven't got one, you need an ICC profile for those inks to work in your printer. Contact your supplier for this. If they can't supply one, you need to get a custom one made (which would likely give you better results than a suppler one anyway)

But, for the ICC profile to work, you need graphics software that knows how to use it, and you need to have the colour management settings within that program configured correctly.
