C9300/C9500 Operation · 243 · sRGB Optimized for matching specific colors, such as a company logo color. The colors within the printer's color gamut are printed without any modification, and only colors that fall outside the printable colors are modified. C9300/C9500 Operation · 244 b. Color Control = PostScript Color Matching This uses PostScript Color Rendering Dictionaries built into the printer, and affects both RGB and CMYK data. Select the rendering type from the Rendering Intent drop-down list box. · Rendering Intents When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the document's color space to the printer color space. The rendering intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this color conversion takes place. The rendering intents that the printer driver provides are listed below: ­ Auto Best choice for printing general documents. ­ Perceptual Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source gamut into the printer's gamut while maintaining the overall appearance of an image. This may change the overall appearance of an image as all the colors are shifted together. C9300/C9500 Operation · 245 ­ Saturation Best choice for printing bright and saturated colors if you don't necessarily care how accurate the colors are. This makes it the recommended choice for graphs, charts, diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colors in the source gamut to fully saturated colors in the printer's gamut. ­ Relative Colorimetric Good for proofing CMYK color images on a desktop printer. Much like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the source white to the (usually) paper white; i. e. unlike Absolute Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into account. ­ Absolute Colorimetric Best for printing solid colors and tints, such as Company logos etc. Matches colors common to both devices exactly, and clips the out of gamut colors to their nearest printed equivalent. Tries to print white as it appears on screen. The white of a monitor is often very different from paper white, so this may result in color casts, especially in the lighter areas of an image. Color Control = Windows ICM This is the color management system built into Windows. See "Windows ICM color matching" on page 247. Color Control = Using ICC Profiles This option provides a method of matching RGB colors similar to Windows ICM matching. See "OKI "Using ICC Profiles" feature" on page 248.
