Using Color 6

If your Phaser 240 printer is shared by other users on a network

Another user may use the downloadable color correction utility files to change the printer’s default color correction setting. If this situation occurs, the prints you make with a Phaser 240 driver’s Use Printer Setting option, or with a non-Tektronix driver, may not print as expected. Refer to “Sharing the printer on a network” on page 8-21 for details on how the color correction utility files interact with the driver settings for either Tektronix or non-Tektronix drivers.

Application color corrections

Some applications perform color corrections to improve screen-to-printer color matching. The color correction options in the Tektronix drivers or utility files adjust colors in the printer after the application has performed its color corrections.

If the application uses CIE (Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage) colors, the Tektronix corrections are not applied.

If you select a color correction option in the driver other than None, the selection may override some application features.

If you try one of the driver’s other options and the printed results are not what you expected, then select the None option and try reprinting your image.
