Managing color on the GA-1121

NOTE: The RGB Separation print option should be used in conjunction with the Output Profile or CMYK Simulation Profile print options.

•Output converts all RGB colors into the CMYK color space of your copier/printer (when set to the printer’s default), or a customized CMYK color space for your copier/printer (when set to Output 1-10).

•Simulation converts all RGB colors into the CMYK color space for a specified simulation (select the desired simulation with the CMYK Simulation Profile print option).

NOTE: This feature is not available with the PCL driver.

Output profile

In certain cases, you may want to customize the default output profile using the ColorWise Pro Tools Color Editor to achieve particular color effects (see page 3-10). If you do so, the new customized output profile is applied to all data in the print job. Changing the output profile does not affect its associated calibration target (since the target is based on a copier/printer model). You can edit D-Max values of the calibration target separately (see page 3-10).

Use the ColorWise Pro Tools Profile Manager to download your own output profile to the GA-1121 (see page 3-4). Downloaded output profiles are at first associated with the calibration target that is tied to the default output profile. You can edit calibration target D-Max values separately.

If you are printing with the PostScript driver from a Windows computer and have enabled Two-Way Communication, the name of each downloaded or custom profile is represented in the Output Profile setting menu. If you are printing with the AdobePS driver from a Mac OS computer, downloaded or custom profiles appear as Output-1 through Output-10. For more information on Two-Way Communication, see the User Software Installation Guide.

NOTE: This feature is not available with the PCL driver.

Combine Separations

The Combine Separations setting specifies how to print separated CMYK data.
