Graphic Pro Overview This section describes the color matching options available for Graphic Pro. The Graphic Pro color matching system is based around ICC profiles. These profiles are downloaded to the printer using the Profile Assistant utility and then selected in the printer driver. When a job is sent to the printer, the ICC profiles are applied to the print job on the printer. IMPORTANT! Some features of Graphic Pro color matching can only be used if your printer is fitted with a hard disk. The printer hard disk is required if you wish to download and use your own ICC profiles to the printer. If your printer does not have a hard disk fitted, you will only be able to select the factory default profiles that are built-in to the printer. NOTE: The printer's internal hard disk is an optional accessory. C8800 User's Guide 218
