Although it is possible to perform CMYK ink simulations using the Office Color options in the printer driver, we recommend that you use the Graphic Pro color matching system to perform CMYK ink simulations, as this provides additional controls, such as using the “Preserve Black” feature, or specifying an alternative printer output profile.
Instructions on how to apply Ink Simulations appear in the next section (Windows page 242, Mac OS 9 page 243, Mac OS X page 244).
