Four-color (CMYK) printing
Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) are the inks that a printing press uses. The process is often called four-color
printing. CMYK data files are typically used by and originate from graphic arts (printing and publishing) environments.
CMYK Ink Set Emulation (PostScript only)
The printer's color rendering of CMYK can be made to emulate several standard offset press ink sets.
Default. This selection is good for general-purpose rendering of CMYK data. It is designed to render photographs
well, while at the same time providing rich, saturated colors for text and graphics.
SWOP. A common ink standard in the U.S. and other countries/regions.
Euroscale. A common ink standard in Europe and other countries/regions.
DIC (Dainippon Ink and Chemical). A common ink standard in Japan and other countries/regions.
Device. Emulation is turned off. To render photographs properly with this selection, images require color
management in the application or operating system.
