Color Matching • 180
Digital Camera
Optimized for printing photographs taken with a digital
camera. This tends to produce prints with lighter and
brighter colors.
For some photographs, other settings may be better
depending on the subjects and the conditions under
which they were taken. Vivid or Digital Camera settings
produce brightest colors.
sRGB
This option attempts to simulate RGB color.
Optimized for matching specific colors, such as a
company logo color. The colors within the printer's
color gamut are printed without any modification. Only
colors that fall outside the printable colors are modified.
Hue, Brightness, and Saturation
There are three main components to color: Hue, Brightness,
and Saturation.
Hue
The component that determines the frequency of light or
the position in the spectrum or the relative amounts of
red, green and blue. Hue corresponds to the common
definition of color, e.g. "red", "orange", "violet" etc.
Brightness
The component that determines the total amount of light
(white) in the color. Zero brightness is black. 100%
Brightness is white. Intermediate values are "light" or
"dark" colors.
Windows and Macintosh 10.3
Brightness can be adjusted when using the Advanced
Color or Gray Scale color modes (color matching
methods).
