COLORWISE PRINT OPTIONS 19 CMYK/Grayscale Source or Device Link The CMYK/Grayscale Source or Device Link print option allows you to print press proofs or simulations. This setting specifies the offset press standard or other color printing device that you want to simulate. This option affects CMYK data only. When you specify a setting other than Bypass Conversion or ColorWise Off for the CMYK/ Grayscale Source, the E100 overrides source color space definitions or profiles that other color management systems may have specified. In cases where you do not want this setting to override another specified source color space, choose Bypass Conversion. If your document contains an embedded CMYK profile that you want to use, select the Use Embedded Profile If Present (CMYK) option (see "Use Embedded Profile If Present (RGB and CMYK)" on page 27. In this case, the CMYK/Grayscale Source setting is ignored and the embedded profile is used instead. In the printer driver, you can view an unlimited number of custom Full simulations created using Command WorkStation. The number of custom simulations is limited by the available disk space on the E100. The CMYK/Grayscale Source setting that you specify depends on the press standard for which the CMYK data was separated. • For images that were separated using a custom separation (such as a separation produced with an ICC profile), choose the corresponding profile on the E100 with the CMYK/ Grayscale Source setting. • For images that were separated for SWOP, choose SWOP as the CMYK/Grayscale Source setting. To properly simulate a printed image that was separated using an ICC profile, the same profile must be present on the E100. For more information about importing ICC profiles to the E100, see Command WorkStation Help. Two settings are available if you want no CMYK simulation: • The Bypass Conversion setting sends your original CMYK data to the copier with calibration applied, but without conversions to simulate another printer. The Bypass Conversion setting is recommended if you use another color management system instead of ColorWise (for example, ColorSync or Photoshop). In this case, the E100 is expecting to receive CMYK data already in the device color space of the E100. The E100 will not convert the data, but it will apply calibration. • The ColorWise Off setting sends your original CMYK data to the copier without calibration applied and without conversions to simulate another printer. The CMYK data is still subject to maximum density constraints, however. The ColorWise Off setting is not available as a setting in Command WorkStation Color Setup or in Server Setup and cannot be the default CMYK/Grayscale Source setting. You choose this setting for a specific job.

CMYK/Grayscale Source or Device Link
The CMYK/Grayscale Source or Device Link print option allows you to print press proofs or
simulations. This setting specifies the offset press standard or other color printing device that
you want to simulate. This option affects CMYK data only.
When you specify a setting other than Bypass Conversion or ColorWise Off for the CMYK/
Grayscale Source, the E100 overrides
source color space
definitions or profiles that other
color management systems may have specified. In cases where you do
not
want this setting to
override another specified source color space, choose Bypass Conversion.
If your document contains an embedded CMYK profile that you want to use, select the Use
Embedded Profile If Present (CMYK) option (see
“Use Embedded Profile If Present (RGB
and CMYK)”
on page 27. In this case, the CMYK/Grayscale Source setting is ignored and the
embedded profile is used instead.
In the printer driver, you can view an unlimited number of custom Full simulations created
using Command WorkStation. The number of custom simulations is limited by the available
disk space on the E100.
The CMYK/Grayscale Source setting that you specify depends on the press standard for
which the CMYK data was separated.
For images that were separated using a custom separation (such as a separation produced
with an ICC profile), choose the corresponding profile on the E100 with the CMYK/
Grayscale Source setting.
For images that were separated for
SWOP
, choose SWOP as the CMYK/Grayscale Source
setting.
To properly simulate a printed image that was separated using an ICC profile, the same profile
must be present on the E100. For more information about importing ICC profiles to the
E100, see Command WorkStation Help.
Two settings are available if you want no CMYK simulation:
The Bypass Conversion setting sends your original CMYK data to the copier with
calibration applied, but without conversions to simulate another printer.
The Bypass Conversion setting is recommended if you use another color management
system instead of ColorWise (for example, ColorSync or Photoshop). In this case, the
E100 is expecting to receive CMYK data already in the device color space of the E100.
The E100 will not convert the data, but it will apply calibration.
The ColorWise Off setting sends your original CMYK data to the copier without
calibration applied and without conversions to simulate another printer. The CMYK data
is still subject to maximum density constraints, however.
The ColorWise Off setting is not available as a setting in Command WorkStation Color
Setup or in Server Setup and cannot be the default CMYK/Grayscale Source setting. You
choose this setting for a specific job.
