GRAPHIC PRO

This section describes the colour matching options available for Graphic Pro.

The Graphic Pro colour matching system is based around ICC profiles. These profiles are down loaded to the printer using the Profile Assistant utility and then selected in the printer driver. When a job is sent to the printer, the ICC profiles are applied to the print job on the printer.

NOTE:

Some features of Graphic Pro colour matching can only be used if your printer is fitted with a hard disk. The printer hard disk is required if you wish to download and use your own ICC profiles to the printer.

The printer’s internal hard disk is an optional accessory for some models.

If your printer does not have a hard disk fitted, you will only be able to select the factory default profiles that are built-in to the printer.

WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH GRAPHIC PRO COLOUR MATCHING?

The Graphic Pro colour matching system is both powerful and flexible. Here are some examples of how the Graphic Pro colour matching system can be used:

MATCHING PRINTER COLOUR TO AN RGB INPUT DEVICE

By using the ICC profiles of a scanner, digital camera or monitor, the printer's colour can be matched to the input device.

PRINTER SIMULATION

Your printer can be used to simulate the colour output of another printer, even when printing RGB documents. For best results, use CMYK documents when simulating the colour output of other printers.

CMYK INK SIMULATION

Your printer can be used to simulate the colour output of a commercial printing press (SWOP, Euroscale or Japan Color inks).
