Custom table

This option lets you select a custom color table that was previously downloaded to your printing system. All other Printer profile options use the default color table.

Advanced

This option achieves greater consistency in color reproduction among various devices. It compensates for the different color spaces of color printing systems. Selecting and applying a set of profiles is called a color profile. Select to open the Color Correction dialog box for additional color printing options.

In Printer profile, the Advanced option provides some methods for controlling how the printer processes color matching.

From Printer profile, select Advanced. The Color Correction dialog box appears with the following options:

None (application corrected)

With this option, color data processes without applying the adjustments contained in the printing system's internal color lookup tables. Ink simulation will not be executed. This is useful if the application provides its own color correction.

ICM (system corrected)

This option specifies color rendering in the print job to make it as close to the original as possible. ICM technology relies upon associating an output device like a printing system with a Color Profile. An ICM Profile for a printing system contains information about rendering accurate color information for that device. The settings for ICM must be set in the Color Management tab in the printing system Properties.

If you select the None (application corrected) option, click OK to close the Color Correction dialog box.

If you select the ICM (system corrected) option, proceed to step 2.

Select an option, then click OK to save the selection.
