In the Color tab (Windows) or Color Options panel (Mac OS), you have the following Color Management options. Select the same option that you selected in the Print dialog box above (Print Space section, Profile option).
●sRGB: this is the default color space. The input RGB data are converted to CMYK using the printer's internal color maps, which depend on the paper type and print quality selected. These are the most “versatile” color maps, producing saturated colors for CAD and office applications and also producing good results with photographic images.
●AdobeRGB: similar to sRGB, but using the AdobeRGB to CMYK internal color maps, which are designed for AdobeRGB input data with a bigger source gamut. Best suited to digital photography.
●Managed by Application: the driver will not perform any color correction. This path can be used when building custom RGB printer profiles and applying them within the application (the application is responsible for applying the right color management by using the custom RGB printer profiles). In this case, make sure that you have selected the right media profile in the "Print Space, Profile" option in the application print command (see above).
