You should consider that each person has their own perception and their own subjective opinion about the result; this is because there are various factors that can influence our opinions, such as the type of project (photo, design...), the source color space, the media used, the environmental conditions, the subjective perception about your own image, etc.... This means the printing suggestion may not completely match with your own personal opinion. 1. First recommendations: • Refer to the Media type functionality & features and choose the most appropriate media. • It is essential that you have the media type correctly calibrated with the printer, refer to the Calibrate my printer section. • In order to get a correct display, it's also essential that you have the monitor profiled, refer to the Profile my monitor document. • If the paper that you are using is not listed, or if you cannot find a paper type that resembles yours closely enough, we strongly recommend creating a new Custom Paper Type. You can add a custom paper automatically by using the HP Color Center; refer to the Add and profile a new paper type document. • If you need to add color profiles in the application, copy them in the next folder: Windows XP: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\COLOR. Windows 2000: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\COLOR. • ensure your printer has installed the latest firmware version and the latest color profiles, for the paper type you use. In general, if you follow this guide's instructions and you are experiencing any of the following problems, download & install the firmware or the profiles installer from the HP Designjet online. o Contouring in gray transitions printing on photo papers. o Loss of details in shadows and dark areas. o Lass of details printing red and green saturated colors. o Low gamut printing dark red colors. o Blue transitions are not as accurate as it is expected. 2. Open QuarkXPress. In QuarkXPress, color management has two basic components: • A source setup describes the profiles and rendering intents for imported picture files and specifies the color space for colors used in QuarkXPress. You can think of an output setup as "where colors come from". • An output setup describes the color characteristics of some output devices as a press or printer. You can think of an output setup as "where colors are going". 2
