Printed colors are not what you expected

In general

■Try selecting another Color Correction option. Supported printer drivers provide access to the various TekColor color corrections. Refer to ÒColor correction descriptionsÓ on page 4-6 for more information.

■If you are not using a supported driver and are sharing the printer with other users on a network, another user may have changed the printer's default color adjustment setting. Refer to ÒSharing the printer on a networkÓ on page 6-38 for more information.

■If you use the driver's Use Printer Setting option and printed colors are not what you expected, check the following:

■A selection may have been made in the TekColor Correction menu on the printer's front panel. These settings change the printer's color correction setting.

■A color correction utility Þle may have been downloaded to the printer. These Þles change the printer's color correction setting.

Refer to ÒSharing the printer on a networkÓ on page 6-38 for details on how these settings affect prints made from a driver.

■If you are using a color management system, make sure to set the printerÕs TekColor color correction to None. Refer to the documentation supplied with your particular color management system.
