7 ProofReady profiles

The HP DesignJet6 color plugin is supplied with several ProofReady color profiles for ‘out-of-the-box’ color management. Simply choose a ProofReady profile in your page setup, according to the paper type installed in your printer (see Table 3 for supported paper types), and color will be automatically handled in the RIP to produce accurate, consistent and ‘pleasing to the eye’ output.

7.1 Supplied ProofReady profiles

Each ProofReady profile supplied with the HP DesignJet 6 color plugin has been created for a specific HP paper type at a specific resolution. For best results, you should always use the recommended paper, as listed in Table 3, and leave the resolution at the default setting.
