Color Settings dialog box Color Adjustment Tab This tab allows you to adjust the color balance by changing the settings of the Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Brightness, and Contrast options. Preview Shows the effect of color adjustment. The color and brightness change when each item is adjusted. View Color Pattern Displays a pattern for checking color changes produced by color adjustment. If you want to display the preview image with a color pattern, check this check box. Cyan / Magenta / Yellow Adjusts the strengths of Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow. Moving the slider to the right makes a color stronger, and moving the slider to the left makes a color weaker. You can also directly enter a value linked to the slider. Enter a value in the range from -50 to 50. This adjustment changes the relative amount of ink of each color used, which alters the total color balance of the document. Use your application if you want to change the total color balance significantly. Use the printer driver only if you want to adjust the color balance slightly.
