Polaroid PDC 3000 manual Specifying a monitor profile, Using the PDC-3000 with your PC 184

Specifying a monitor profile

In the Monitor drop-down list, select the monitor (usually your current monitor) you will use to preview pictures on your system. This allows IQA to optimize the way it displays preview pictures on your system.

Specifying a destination profile

In the Destination box, choose the ultimate destination of the picture (a monitor for on-screen presentations, for example, or a printer with a particular resolution setting for reports or memos). This choice allows IQA to optimize the picture for the imaging characteristics of the monitor or printer.

Note: When you print the picture, be sure to use the same printer and settings you selected. Also be sure to all the other printer options are set according to Required printer settings for IQA on page 237.

If your printer is not listed in the Destination box, choose the generic monitor setting (“Mon PC generic.icc”). If this choice produces unsatisfactory results when you print, experiment with printer choices in the same family as your printer. You can also check the Polaroid site on the World Wide Web (http://www.polaroid.com) for additional printer profiles to download. If none of these options produces satisfactory results, you may need to disable IQA processing in the Preview window or the Set Preferences tab.
