systems, sRGB has gained broad adoption as a means to exchange color information between applications and devices using a common definition that assures typical users will experience greatly improved color matching. sRGB improves your ability to match colors between the printer, the computer monitor and other input devices (scanner, digital camera) automatically, without the need to become a color expert. Printing in four colors - CMYK Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) are the inks used by a printing press. The process is often called four-color printing. CMYK data files are typically used by and originate from graphic arts (printing and publishing) environments. The printer will accept CMYK colors through the PS printer driver. The printer color-rendering of CMYK is designed to provide rich, saturated colors for text and graphics. CMYK ink set emulation (PostScript only) The printer color rendering of CMYK can be made to emulate several standard offset press ink sets. In some situations, the CMYK color values in an image or document might not be suited to the printer. For example, a document might be optimized for another printer. For best results, the CMYK values should be adapted to the HP Color LaserJet 4700. Select the appropriate color input profile from the printer driver. ● Default CMYK+. HP CMYK+ technology produces optimal printing results for most printing jobs. ● SWOP (Specification for Web Offset Publications).

Common ink standard in Europe and other countries/ regions. ● DIC (Dainippon Ink and Chemical). Common ink standard in Japan and other countries/regions. ● Custom profile. Select this option to use a custom input profile to accurately control color output, for example, to emulate another HP color LaserJet printer.
