Various Printing Operations

Step 1¨ Create the Full Color + Spot Color Print Image

1.Create the full color and spot color data to be printed.

It is not necessary to prepare the spot color and full color im- ages separately as with full color + spot color printing using Overlay mode. The data is prepared on the same page. Ar- eas to be printed with spot ink and those to be printed in full color are indicated by their respective screen colors.

Note

There is a small range of color composition values that will be interpreted by the printer as indicating spot colors. Because of this, photographs and other data with large numbers of differ- ent colors may have areas that match the spot color designa- tions and print partially in spot color. When printing images that contain data such as photos, it is best to print full color + spot color using Overlay mode.

2.Set the image areas to be printed in spot color to colors that correspond to the spot colors you want to use.
