following two ways.
Choose the best method according to the application you are using, the operating system
environment, the aim of the printout and so on.
Setting color management with the applications
This method is for printing from applications that support color management. All color
management processes are carried out by the application’s color management system.
This method is useful when you want to obtain the same color management print results
using a common application among different operating system environments. See “Setting
Color Management with the Applications” on page 138.
Setting color management with the printer driver
The printer driver uses the operating system’s color management system and carries out
all color management processes. You can make color management settings in the printer
driver using the following two methods.
OHost ICM (Windows)/ColorSync (Mac OS X)
Set when printing from applications that support color management. This is effective in
producing similar print results from different applications under the same operating
systems. For Windows, see “Color management printing by Host ICM (Windows)” on
page 140. For Mac OS X, see “Color management printing by ColorSync (Mac OS X)”
on page 142.
ODriver ICM (Windows only)
This allows you to perform color management printing from applications that do not
support color management. See “Color management printing by Driver ICM (Windows
only)” on page 143.
