Phaser 360 Color Printer
Printing PANTONE Colors
If the Phaser 360 printerÕs printer-speciÞc PANTONE Colors are not printing
as expected, make sure that you are printing with the Enhanced
print-quality setting and with color corrections set to None. Refer to
ÒPrinting the PANTONE Color ChartÓ in the on-line manual on the printerÕs
CD-ROM for more information.
There are many variables in process reproduction of colors generated by the
Phaser 360 printer, any one of which may affect the quality of the PANTONE
Color simulation, including:
■ Type of ink used on printing press
■ Type of ink Þlm used on printing press
■ Effective Þnal resolution
■ Dot structure/halftones
Note
The Phaser 360 color printer is PANTONE-approved only when
used with Tektronix ColorStix inks.
If you have questions about PANTONE Color Matching, you can get
information in the following places:
■ Tektronix web site: You can view selected topics on the Phaser 360
printerÕs web page. Access the printerÕs documentation from this
