Printing: Beyond the Basics
5-8 Phaser 360 Color Printer
Special considerations
If your Phaser 360 printer is shared on a network
Another user may use the downloadable color correction utility Þles, or the
printerÕs front panel, to change the printerÕs default color correction setting.
If this situation occurs and you try to print through a nonsupported driver,
your prints may not turn out as expected. Refer to ÒSharing the printer on a
networkÓ on page 8-34 for more information.
Application color corrections
Some applications perform their own color corrections to improve
screen-to-printer color matching. The TekColor color correction options in
the supported drivers adjust colors in the printer after the application has
performed its color corrections.
If the application uses CIE (Commission Internationale de
lÕEclairage) colors, the TekColor corrections will not be applied.
If you select a TekColor color correction option other than None,
that selection may override some application features.
If you try one of the TekColor color correction options and the
printed results are not what you expected, then select the None
option and try reprinting your image.
Select the None TekColor color correction option if you are using
ColorSync color matching on a Macintosh or host color correction
in Windows 95 (refer to the printerÕs CD-ROM or the Tektronix
web site).
If you are using an unsupported driver
If you are not using one of the printer drivers shipped with the printer or
another driver that uses the Phaser 360 PPD (PostScript printer description)
Þles to control printer functions, then use the downloadable utility Þles from
the printerÕs CD-ROM or the printerÕs front panel to select color corrections.
