● Video cards and drivers ● Operating environment (humidity for example) For most situations, the best method for matching colors on the screen to the printed page is to print sRGB colors. Sample book color matching The process for matching product output to preprinted sample books and standard color references is complex. In general, you can obtain a reasonably good match to a sample book if the inks used to create the sample book are cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. These are usually referred to as process color sample books. Some sample books are created from spot colors. Spot colors are specially created colorants. Many of these spot colors are outside of the range of the product. Most spot color sample books have companion process sample books that provide CMYK approximations to the spot color. Most process sample books will state which process standards were used to print the sample book. In most cases they will be SWOP, EURO, or DIC. To get optimal color matching to the process sample book, select the corresponding ink emulation from the product menu. If you cannot identify the process standard, use SWOP ink emulation. Print color samples To use the color samples, select the color sample that is the closest match to the desired color. Use the sample's color value in the software program to describe the object you wish to match. Printed colors vary depending on the paper type and the software program. Use the following procedure to print color samples at the product using the control panel: 1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, scroll to and touch the Administration button. 2. Open the following menus: ● Reports ● Other Pages 3. Select either the RGB Samples or the CMYK Samples option, and touch the OK button. PANTONE® color matching PANTONE has multiple color matching systems. PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM® is very popular and uses solid inks to generate a wide range of color hues and tints. NOTE: PANTONE Colors generated might not match PANTONE-identified standards. Consult current PANTONE Publications for accurate color. ENWW Color printing 113
