More accurate printer color If you have created your own profiles with third-party ICC profile creation software, these can be downloaded to the printer and used when printing. TYPES OF ICC PROFILE SUPPORTED There are four classes of ICC profile supported by the Graphic Pro color matching system: PROFILE TYPE RGB Source (RGB Input) CMYK Simulation (CMYK input) Printer (CMYK Output) Link Profile DESCRIPTION These profiles describe the device that was used to capture RGB data (e.g. scanner or digital camera). The RGB Input Profile may also be your monitor profile if you are trying to match to your screen. These profiles describe the CMYK device whose colors you are trying to simulate. Typically this would be another manufacturer's printer or an offset printing press. Profiles are already built-in to the printer for commercial printing press inks such as SWOP or Euroscale. This profile describes the color characteristics of your own printer. The printer already has factory default profiles built-in, but you can replace these profiles with your own if required. This is a special type of ICC profile that converts directly from CMYK to CMYK. For example, a link profile could convert directly from the CMYK space of another printer to the CMYK space of your printer. GRAPHIC PRO WORKFLOW - OVERVIEW There are three steps to using the Graphic Pro color matching system: 1. Gather or create ICC profiles (see page 40) 2. Download ICC profiles to the printer hard disk (page 40) 3. Select the ICC profiles in the printer driver when printing (page 41) Color matching (advanced) > 39

WORKFLOW
OVERVIEW
There are three steps to using the Graphic Pro color matching
system:
1.
Gather or create ICC profiles (see
page 40
)
2.
Download ICC profiles to the printer hard disk (

)
3.
Select the ICC profiles in the printer driver when printing

PROFILE
TYPE
DESCRIPTION
RGB Source
(RGB Input)
These profiles describe the device that was used to capture
RGB data (e.g. scanner or digital camera).
The RGB Input Profile may also be your monitor profile if
you are trying to match to your screen.
CMYK
Simulation
(CMYK input)
These profiles describe the CMYK device whose colors you
are trying to simulate. Typically this would be another
manufacturer's printer or an offset printing press.
Profiles are already built-in to the printer for commercial
printing press inks such as SWOP or Euroscale.
Printer
(CMYK Output)
This profile describes the color characteristics of your own
printer.
The printer already has factory default profiles built-in, but
you can replace these profiles with your own if required.
Link Profile
This is a special type of ICC profile that converts directly
from CMYK to CMYK.
For example, a link profile could convert directly from the
CMYK space of another printer to the CMYK space of your
printer.
