Got it.

Good one. I enjoyed it -- but I must say too, I'm not exactly on a roll with the metas this week. I stared at this one for quite some time before seeing what I needed to.

Very quick solve (before finishing the grid). Still waiting for my sticker for a long ago puzzle.

I needed a nudge, because I had TAN and BLUE for the top and middle ones. I also don't recall learning of that printing system, but googling the correct three colors was enough to find it.
