Color adjustment options The aim of color management is to print accurate colors. If you perform color management correctly, then you should be able to print accurate colors with no need of any manual color adjustments. However, manual adjustments may be useful in the following situations: ● If your color management is not working correctly for some reason ● If you want colors that are subjectively pleasing rather than accurate The printer driver provides different adjustment facilities depending on whether you are printing in color or in grayscale. If you are printing in pure black and white, there are no color adjustment options. Printing in color You can adjust the colors of your print in similar ways under Windows and Mac OS: ● In the Windows driver dialog: select the Color tab, ensure that the Advanced color adjustments box is checked, then press the Settings button beside it. ● In the Mac OS Print dialog (T770, T1200): select the Color Options panel, select Color from the Mode list, then press the Adjust button. ● In the Mac OS X 10.5 PostScript Print dialog (PostScript printers): select the Color Options panel, select Color from the Mode list, then press the Adjust button. ● In the Mac OS X 10.4 PostScript Print dialog (PostScript printers): select the Color Options panel, then Lightness and Hue.
