Cmyk Simulation Profile | Toshiba GA-1121 instruction

11-12 GA-1121 Color Management

•Other allows you to specify custom RGB source settings. If you choose Other as the RGB Source Profile setting, you must choose settings for the Gamma, Phosphors, and White Point options.

•Sources 1-10specify the definitions you download as RGB source profiles. For more information about downloading RGB source profiles, see page 3-4.

If you are printing with the PostScript driver from a Windows computer and have Two-Way Communication enabled, the name of each downloaded profile is represented in the RGB Source Profile setting menu. If you are printing with the AdobePS driver from a Mac OS computer, downloaded profiles appear as Source-1 through Source-10. For more information on Two-Way Communication, see the User Software Installation Guide.

•None instructs the GA-1121 to allow the RGB sources you defined elsewhere, such as in the application, to be used. When you set RGB Source to None, the appearance of colors will not be independent of the file type. For example, RGB EPS files will look different from RGB TIFF files.

With RGB Source set to None, PostScript RGB data that contains a source color space definition is converted using the CRD specified by the Rendering Style option (see page 1-7). Non-PostScript RGB data and PostScript RGB data that does not contain a source color space definition are converted using a general undercolor removal (UCR) conversion method.

NOTE: This feature is not available with the PCL driver.

CMYK Simulation Profile

The CMYK Simulation Profile print option allows you to print press proofs or simulations. This setting specifies the offset press standard or other color printing device that you want to simulate. This option affects CMYK data only.

With the Windows printer drivers, you can also view an unlimited number of custom Full simulations created using ColorWise Pro Tools. On Mac OS computers, you can view up to 10 Full custom simulations. The number of custom simulations is limited by the disk space on the GA-1121.
