Vivid Color, the default color correction mode, is generally recommended for typical office printing.

Note The print driver help window provides a short description of each color correction mode. To access information, click on the Help button (for a Macintosh, in the TekColor Options dialog box; for Windows, in the Tektronix Printer Features dialog box).

You can view an example output of each color correction mode at the bottom of the printer’s startup page. Refer to “Printing the startup page” on page A-5 for instructions.

Note If your printer is networked and you have changed the front panel settings, make sure that you tell other users on the network. Printer settings affect all prints made with non-Tektronix drivers.
