Note
There are a small range of color component values that will be
interpreted by the printer as indicating foil colors. Because of
this, photographs and other data with large numbers of different
colors may have areas that match the foil color designations
and print partially in foil color. When printing images that contain
data such as photos, it is best to print full color + foil color using
Overlay mode.
Colors (and color components) used to indicate foil colors
In simultaneous full color + foil color printing, indicate foil colors by selecting
the corresponding color component for each foil color. For characters of
which number of points is 32 or more, select the following approximate col-
ors.

Note
See your application’s manual for instructions on setting up
color components in your application. Using CMYK to specify
color components may result in colors that do not match the
desired foil colors.
Also, some applications make internal adjustment to produce
the displayed color components. In such cases, the color
components cannot be restricted and therefore foil colors
cannot be used. When using such an application, use the
Overlay mode.
There are a small range of color component values that will
be interpreted by the printer as indicating foil colors. Be-
cause of this, areas of which color component values are
close to a foil color are also printed in the foil color.
