Color

Xerox Phaser color printers embody 20 years of printing experience. While different models
are optimized for tasks, such as fast, easy, of f ice printing or complex, lar ge format graphic arts

applications, all Phaser color printers share important characteristics that contribute to the
Xerox reputation for color image quality.

Exceptional color quality starts with the controller. Xerox designs and b uilds the Phaser printer
controller. Working in unison with advanced printer driver software, your printer incorporates
capabilities, such as custom color tables for color accuracy. The proprietary TekColor
correction applies the best color correction mode to each element on the page. This results in
bright, vivid colors in solid fill areas, good detail in photographs, and crisp text.

Your printer also uses True Adobe PostScript 3 for the most accurate page rendering and
image quality. Together, these features combine to give you consistently high-quality results
for a broad range of printing needs.

For more information about color and your printer, go to Reference/Printing/Using Color on
the User Documentation CD-ROM.
