Professional Color Tools for Novices and Professionals

The magicolor 2400MF Series all-in-ones are designed with the color novice in mind. They feature an internal color matching system that automatically selects the proper color model based on the specific elements on any given page.

Professional color users will benefit from the ICC device profiles that allow them to adjust color.

In addition, the magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF feature enhanced Automatic Image Density Control (eAIDC), which produces consistent color from print to print.

Automatic ICC-Based Color Matching

The magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF printer drivers include an ICC- based color matching system that provides single-button controls for automatic correction of color files. Using built-in ICC profiles and an sRGB color space, this printer-resident system makes it as easy to get great color from a PowerPoint presentation as from a desktop publishing application such as QuarkXPress 6.5 or InDesign. Both novice and professional color users will find these color matching methods easy to navigate.

When the color matching system is activated, three different color rendering methods for three different types of page elements (graphics, images, and text) are available:

￿Colorimetric—This is the best choice for documents that contain solid colors. The magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF automatically adjust color settings for consistent, predictable output.

￿Perceptual—This is the ideal selection for documents with photographic images. It’s tuned to enhance images for high- quality proofs.

￿Saturation—This is the best selection for documents containing brightly colored text and graphics.

The custom selections in the printer driver can be used to fine-tune the color output manually. The convenient slider bars make it easy to adjust image contrast, brightness, saturation, and sharpness.
