Printing color and grayscale documents

When you print a document containing colors or shades of gray, you can choose to maximize either image quality or speed.

1Choose Print from the File menu (or drag the document to the desktop printer icon and drop it on the printer).

2In the Print dialog box, make the selections you want.

3Click Options.

4In the Print Options dialog box, choose what you want from the Print pop-up menu.

mFor the fastest printing, choose Black and White. (The image quality won’t be as good, especially if the original image is in color.)

mIf you’re using a customized color-matching method or printer profile, choose ColorSync Color Matching. Printing with ColorSync Color Matching, the computer does the work, matching the RGB colors on your monitor and the printer’s profile and sending the correct CMYK information to the printer.

Be sure to set the ColorSync system profile to match your monitor. (See Appendix D.)

mIf your print job contains JPEG compressed images (such as QuickTime or QuickTake 100 images) choose PostScript Color Matching. Printing with PostScript Color Matching, more color matching is done on the printer.

5Click OK.

6In the Print dialog box, click Print.
