so when converting the color spaces, the colors will be different from the reproduced colors unless consideration is given to the individual printer characteristics.

Implementing color matching is recommended for general documents. In general, use this setting.

Using Windows PS Printer Driver

Open the le to be printed.

Select [Print] from the [File] menu.

Click [Advanced] (or [Preferences]).

Select [Automatic] in [Color Mode] in

the [Color] tab, and then click [OK].

To maintain color consistency from data creation to output, it is necessary to consider the color differences by device when converting colors. This process is called "color matching". The program that implements the color matching is called the "color management system" (CMS).

The printer can use either printer driver color matching or application color matching.

Note

Even if using color matching, the printed colors may

appear dark compared to the colors on the monitor. This is because the range of colors that can be reproduced by the device is narrower than the range of colors that can be reproduced by the monitor, so even if color matching is used, the vivid colors on the monitor cannot be reproduced.

Printing will be implemented.

Matching Colors Using the Printer Drivers

Easy color matching (Ofce colors)

Color matching is the optimum method supplied for users who frequently use business documents such as word processing software, spreadsheet software, and presentation software. Color matching is implemented for printers using the colors expressed using RGB colors, which are used with these software applications.

Color matching is implemented using a special accelerator (ASIC) that is built into the printer. When converting the RGB color space print data to the printer CMYK color space, color matching processing is applied.

Memo

Can be used with Mac OS X printer drivers.

This is a function to disable the PostScript Color Matching for RGB system color space. If not conducting color matching, you can get the same print result (color) as the initial state setting of Windows.

Memo

PostScript Color Matching is a standard color matching

mechanism in PS that creates Generic RGB prole based

Color Space Array (CSA) for RGB entered data, converts RGB to XYZ color space by CSA, and from that XYZ color space converts into CMYK of printer by using the Color Rendering Dictionary (CRD) installed in the printer.
