options:
(a) Monitor (6500k) Perceptual
optimized for printing photographs. Colors are printed with
emphasis on saturation.
(b) Monitor (6500k) Vivid
optimized for printing photographs, but with even more
saturated colors than the Monitor (6500k) Perceptual
setting.

Microsoft Office. Colors are printed with emphasis on
