Adjusting color options
To a dj us t th e way colors are printed, follow these steps:
1Choose Print from the File menu.

dialog box opens. See the Read Me file for information about printing in

The ColorSync color-matching system makes sure that colors look consistent
no matter what device you use to view them—monitor or printer. In addition,
ColorSync helps give you the best possible colors when you export the image
to another Macintosh with ColorSync installed or print it on another color
printer.
Note: If you have a color PowerBook, open the ColorSync control panel and
make sure the system profile is correct for your PowerBook. If it’s not, choose
Set System Profile from the pop-up menu and select the correct profile.
The printer blends the four ink colors
in either a repeating pattern of dots
or a random scattering of dots.
Choose the halftoning method you prefer.
Click Color.
To turn on color
matching and get the
