Some Advice for Colour Printing
Your Canon MultiPASS C50 is a powerful colour printer. If this is the ®rst time you have used a colour printer, read this section for some tips on printing with colour effectively.
Colour lets you strengthen the visual impact of reports, memos, and presentations. Colour captures your readers' attention, holds their interest, and increases their understanding of your message. You do not have to be an artist or a graphic designer to use colour effectively, but you do need software that supports colour printing, and you need to spend some time thinking about how best to use colour to highlight important information. Without careful planning, you can overuse colour, and actually detract from the document's content.
Selecting Paper and Other Print Media
Selecting the right print media is crucial for achieving the best possible print quality. See ºSelecting the Print Mediaº on page
If you use coated paper, the colours may print out differently from what you expect.
Understanding Your Application's Capabilities
It is important that you know how to correctly use the application you will be printing from, and its capabilities and limitations for colour printing.
Your MultiPASS C50 can reproduce up to 16.7 million different colours, but the number you can actually print depends on the application you use. Some applications have restrictions on how they can use colour: see your application's documentation to see if it has any such restrictions.
