Choosing a Color Matching Method
General Information
NOTE: These suggestions are for guidance only.
Your results may vary depending on the application from which
you are printing.
Some applications override, without warning, any color
matching settings in the printer driver.
There is no one way to achieve a good match between the
document displayed on your monitor, and its printed
equivalent.
There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and
reproducible color.
However, the following guidelines may help in achieving good
color output from your printer.
There are several suggested methods. The method you choose
is determined by the type of document you are printing.
• most common [RGB]. See page 201.
