Using the printer’s current color defaults
The
Use Printer Setting
option is available only in the supported drivers.
This option sends no color correction information to the printer. It uses the
current default in the printer to process colors for printing. The factory
default color correction is
Automatic
. The printer’s default can be one of
the following:
■
Any option
selected in the
TekColor Corrections
menu on the
printer’s front panel.
■
One of the color correction utility files sent to the printer.
Using simple color conversions
The following utility files use Adobe’s standard color conversions to tell the
printer to pipe colors through as fast as possible:
■
Monochrome (MONOCHR.PS
): Converts all colors to grays. Use
this file with the
Fast Monochrome
print-quality mode for the
fastest possible throughput.
■
Raw CMYK Colors
(
RAWCMYK.PS
): Converts all colors (CMYK,
RGB, grays) to CMYK colors. Use this file if your application
specifies colors as CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black).
This file lets you control the CMYK output of the printer’s colors
without using any TekColor color corrections. Use this file with
the
Fast Color
print-quality mode to increase throughput.
■
Raw RGB Colors
(
RAWRGB.PS
): Converts all colors (CMY, CMYK,
grays) to RGB colors. Use this file if your application specifies
colors as RGB (red, green, and blue). This file lets you control the
CMY output of the printer’s colors without using any TekColor
color corrections. Use this file with the
Standard
print-quality
mode to increase throughput.
Note
Refer to the on-line documentation on the printer’s CD-ROM for
instructions on installing and using the utility files.
