CHAPTER 3 PRINTER DRIVER

Color Control

Color Matching To get an accurate color matched output between the monitor and printer, the color data should be adjusted for this printer before printing. When you are using a software application which has its own color matching engine, turn this setting off. The color matching system from the application is then valid.

ICM Windows 95 has a color matching engine called ICM - Image Color Matching - in its Operating System. ICM uses a profile of each device (monitor, scanner, printer...) to know the characteristics of individual devices and correct the difference between device characteristics.

When this is set to OFF, the printer driver will do the color adjustment.

Document Type

The printer driver will select the most suitable color matching method depending on your document type. Generally, text and business graphics are printed vividly and photographic images are printed softly.

This is the recommended mode for each type of your file:
