Phaser 240 Drivers and Utilities
Turning off all color corrections
If you do not want to use any Tektronix color corrections, you can specify no
corrections from a Tektronix driver or with utility files. Select no corrections
when you are using applications that do their own color adjusting.
Printing the brightest colors and a truer blue
The Vivid Color option is the best choice for typical office printing. This
option also makes printed blue appear less purple by reducing the amount
of magenta used to print blue colors. Other colors in the cyan-blue-purple-
magenta range in the image are also adjusted to compensate for the adjusted
blue. Colors in the red-orange-yellow-green range are not affected. This
selection is good for making presentation graphics, such as overhead
transparencies, and for bright-looking colors that don’t need to match the
screen’s colors or printing press colors.
Vivid Color adjusts CMYK colors using a method that adds black to other
components. This option prints more saturated (darker) colors and may be
useful for printing overhead transparencies for presentations from some
applications, such as CorelDRAW!. Use this option if you have specified a
color in the CMYK system, and the color has a black component, and the
color appears lighter than you expected when printed.
