Printer emulation If you want to print a particular job and to see approximately the same colors that you would get from printing the same job on a different HP DesignJet printer, you can use the emulation mode provided by your printer. NOTE: This option is available only when printing an HP-GL/2, PostScript or PDF job. Accuracy is guaranteed only when printing on plain, coated, or heavyweight coated paper. ● In the Windows HP-GL/2 or PostScript driver dialog: select the Color tab, then Printer Managed Colors, then select Printer Emulation from the Source Profile list. You can then select from the Emulated Printer list. ● In the Mac OS X Print dialog: select the Color Options panel, then select from the Printer Emulation list. Color adjustment options The aim of color management is to print accurate colors. If you perform color management correctly, then you should be able to print accurate colors with no need of any manual color adjustments. However, manual adjustments may be useful in the following situations: ● If your color management is not working correctly for some reason ● If you want colors that are subjectively pleasing rather than accurate The printer driver provides different adjustment facilities depending on whether you are printing in color or in grayscale. If you are printing in pure black and white, there are no color adjustment options. Printing in color You can adjust the colors of your print as follows. ● In the Windows driver dialog: select the Color tab, ensure that the Advanced color adjustments box is checked, then press the Settings button beside it.
