Create output profiles with the embedded profiler Create output profiles with the embedded profiler Output profiles (ICC profiles) determine how the system will print color. PRISMAsync uses default media families to indicate which output profiles will be applied to a media. (See Media Families on page 29 and Media family calibration on page 170) When the default output profiles do not achieve your color reproduction standards for specific media, you can use the embedded color profiler to create new output profiles. The creation of new output profiles is done via a media family calibration. The embedded color profiler creates and installs an output profile and calibration curve for every halftone. As part of the procedure, you measure the calibration charts printed on the specific media. [136] Indicate media family calibration options and output profile creation Procedure 1. Calibrate the printer. Calibrate the printer on page 173 (See ) IMPORTANT You must always perform a printer calibration before you continue with this procedure. 2.
