2-5 Simple workflows
NOTE: CMYK Simulation set to None is also useful when you want to prepare
an output profile of your calibrated copier/printer or when you use less
efficient color management from the desktop (such as ColorSync or ICM).
In this workflow, colors are modified only at the calibration stage. This is
indicated by the black box in the diagram below.
While this workflow lends some control over the color quality produced by
the copier/printer, you should consider additional ColorWise color
management, as described in the next section.
Workflow 2 using ColorWise color management—standard workflow
iR C2100/2100S servers are highly optimized for the specific copier/printer
they drive, and ColorWise addresses many issues unique to your copier/
printer, including screens, individual toner response, interactions among
toners, natural smoothness of blends, and the capability to render
PANTONE and custom colors. The iR C2100/2100S distinguishes text and
graphic from image elements, so the black channel information is preserved
while parameters used for CMYK color separations are maintained.
Conventional color management systems typically address only color
conversions, and they occupy your computer’s processor. When you use
ColorWise, jobs leave your computer faster to be processed more quickly on
the iR C2100/2100S.
The recommended standard color workflow (indicated by the black boxes in
the diagram below) uses ColorWise calibration and color management.
