USING COLOR MANAGEMENT WORKFLOWS 14 Standard recommended workflow The Color Server is highly optimized for the specific printer it supports. ColorWise addresses issues unique to your printer, including halftones, individual toner response, interactions among toners, natural smoothness of blends, and the capability to render spot and custom colors. The Color Server distinguishes text and graphics from image elements, so that black channel information can be preserved while parameters used for CMYK color separations are maintained. The recommended standard color workflow uses ColorWise calibration and color management. The Color Server comes into play near the end of the color workflow. For this workflow: • Bypass any color management of printed output in the application and operating system. This ensures that the colors you select reach the Color Server and ColorWise in a usable form. Consider, however, that ColorWise fully supports color management from applications and printer drivers (see "Using ColorWise and application color management" on page 10). • Set the CMYK/Grayscale Source option in ColorWise to match the CMYK color space used in the application to select the colors. Any CMYK/Grayscale Source setting (except ColorWise Off, if available) applies calibration, so the response of the printer appears stable. Some examples of CMYK/Grayscale Source settings are SWOP or ISO Coated in the U.S., Euroscale in Europe, and DIC or Japan Color in Japan. If colors have been selected specifically for your calibrated Color Server, set CMYK/Grayscale Source to None. • Set other ColorWise print options as appropriate. For a list and descriptions of ColorWise print options that affect CMYK, RGB, spot, and other colors, see Color Printing.

Standard recommended workflow
The Color Server is highly optimized for the specific printer it supports. ColorWise addresses
issues unique to your printer, including halftones, individual toner response, interactions
among toners, natural smoothness of blends, and the capability to render spot and custom
colors. The Color Server distinguishes text and graphics from image elements, so that black
channel information can be preserved while parameters used for CMYK
color separations
are
maintained.
The recommended standard color workflow uses ColorWise calibration and color
management. The Color Server comes into play near the end of the color workflow.
For this workflow:
•
Bypass any color management of printed output in the application and operating system.
This ensures that the colors you select reach the Color Server and ColorWise in a
usable form. Consider, however, that ColorWise fully supports color management from
applications and printer drivers (see
“Using ColorWise and application color
management”
on page 10).
•
Set the CMYK/Grayscale Source option in ColorWise to match the CMYK color space
used in the application to select the colors. Any CMYK/Grayscale Source setting (except
ColorWise Off, if available) applies calibration, so the response of the printer appears
stable.
Some examples of CMYK/Grayscale Source settings are
SWOP
or ISO Coated in the
U.S.,
Euroscale
in Europe, and
DIC
or Japan Color in Japan. If colors have been selected
specifically for your calibrated Color Server, set CMYK/Grayscale Source to None.
•
Set other ColorWise print options as appropriate. For a list and descriptions of ColorWise
print options that affect CMYK, RGB, spot, and other colors, see
