Printing: Beyond the Basics 4

Special considerations

If your Phaser 350 printer is shared on a network

Another user may use the downloadable color correction utility files, or the printer’s front panel, to change the printer’s default color correction setting. If this situation occurs, the prints you make through a non-supported driver may not print as expected. Refer to “Sharing the printer on a network” on page 6-39 for details on how the color corrections interact with the driver settings for either supported or non-supported drivers.

Application color corrections

Some applications perform color corrections to improve screen-to-printer color matching. The TekColor color correction options in the supported drivers 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 TekColor corrections will not be applied.

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

■If you try one of the TekColor color correction options in a supported driver and the printed results are not what you expected, then select the None option and try reprinting your image.

■Select the None TekColor color correction option in a supported driver if you are using ColorSync color matching on a Macintosh or host color correction in Windows 95 (refer to the printer’s CD-ROM or Tektronix’ World Wide Web site).

If you are using an unsupported driver

If you are not using one of the printer drivers shipped with the printer, or another PPD-driven driver, then use the downloadable utility files or the printer’s front panel to select color corrections.
