your image for printing, or if you are using some other third party color matching software.

Select Algebraic if you would like the printer driver to make very simple, yet fast, color balance adjustments. This option gives you more natural looking images without actually utilizing any specific color matching software and without slowing down the processing speed of the printer driver.

Select FargoColor to enable color matching profiles written specifically for your printer. This option automatically adjusts the color of your image according to preconfigured printer profiles and default system profiles. This results in a very precise color match compliant with ICC standards. (NOTE: Since the FargoColor option is intended to match color hues as closely as possible, you may notice that some colors may appear slightly muted when printing simple spot colors.)

Since the default system profiles provided are generic, the colors of some monitors may still vary slightly from your output. As a solution, raw printer profiles are included with this upgrade in case you would like to combine your custom monitor profiles with the printer profiles. This is done using ColorSynergyª software by Candela¨, Ltd. This program can also be used to create your own custom printer profiles. For more information on ColorSynergy, contact FARGO.

This control sets the lightness/darkness of the printed image. Place your mouse pointer on the box or on the left and right arrows to change the amount of heat used in the printing process.

Select this option if you wish to print all gray scale text with the ribbonÕs black panel only. Normally, when printing gray scale or black text, PrimeraPro lays down all four of the ribbonÕs color panels. By laying down only the black panel, PrimeraPro is able to print black text with more sharpness and definition. Processing time may slightly increase when this option is selected. Please note that some applications may not support this option.

Selecting this option allows PrimeraProÕs printer driver to bypass Print Manager and to send all print data directly to PrimeraPro. When selected, this option devotes all of your system resources to the current print job, thus, increasing print speed. When the print job is finished, your system
