Using color tools Selecting a source color profile places the image on that source profile's color processing path when there is no embedded profile for the image. Figure 4-6. Expert Color: Source Color dialog • Output color allows you to select profiles that maximize the color potential of the output print engine. - Halftones are created by breaking an image into a pattern of color dots. The larger the dots the darker the color. For iGen3, we suggest you use the default 175 dot for most jobs and 200 for coated stock jobs. For DC 20xx/60xx, we suggest you use the default profile. - Image Resample: The DocuSP controller provides you with the ability to select an interpolation, or image resample, method to scale images for output in order to achieve maximum Image Quality at the desired RIP performance. Interpolation is defined as the process of estimating a value of a function between two known values. In the Image Interpolation context, the function of known values is the input image, and the estimated values are the values calculated for the output image. Image interpolation attempts to produce a smooth transition between adjacent samples rather than simply replicating pixels (which would result in "blocky" images). 4-6 Color Management Guide

Color Management Guide
Selecting a source color profile places the image on that
source profile’s color processing path when there is no
embedded profile for the image.
Figure 4-6. Expert Color: Source Color dialog
Output
color allows you to select profiles that maximize the
color potential of the output print engine.
Halftones
are created by breaking an image into a
pattern of color dots. The larger the dots the darker the
color.
For iGen3, we suggest you use the default 175 dot for
most jobs and 200 for coated stock jobs.
For DC 20xx/60xx, we suggest you use the default profile.
Image Resample
: The DocuSP controller provides you
with the ability to select an interpolation, or image
resample, method to scale images for output in order to
achieve maximum Image Quality at the desired RIP
performance. Interpolation is defined as the process of
estimating a value of a function between two known
values. In the Image Interpolation context, the function of
known values is the input image, and the estimated
values are the values calculated for the output image.
Image interpolation attempts to produce a smooth
transition between adjacent samples rather than simply
replicating pixels (which would result in “blocky” images).
