Epson 2200, 7600, 9600 Ultrachrome printer owners should refer to the end of this guide for additional information on printing greyscale images.

The Bitmap Tab

Moving to the Bitmap tab of color management reveals more settings. In this example “Adobe RGB 1998” is chosen as the RGB source space in the “RGB” box. This setting should generally coincide with the settings used in programs such as Photoshop so that all applications are synchronized.

Because the test image in use is RGB, the CMYK settings will have no effect on this image. Typically it will be set to whatever is best suited to

the user’s specific workflow.

Set the Embedded box to “Apply”, this will use the embedded profile (if one is present) in an image file and override the RGB source space setting.

The settings for the Gray profile should be set to whatever is currently used in Photoshop, typically Gray Gamma 2.2.

In the rendering Intent box to the right of Embedded, choose Relative Colorimetric or Perceptual. Either one will work for the purpose of this setup.

The Vector tab is where color management settings are specified for vector elements of a file. For the purpose of printing the sample image, there are no vector settings that need to be made, therefore the settings can remain at “NONE”.

Close the Color Management window.

PRINTER SETTINGS
