CMYK Simulation Profile

[JapanColor(Canon], [US Web Ctd(Canon], [Euro Standard], [None]*, [Download Profile]

This setting allows you to specify the simulation target to print the CMYK (Cyan Magenta Yellow blacK) data.

The machine converts CMYK data into a device dependent CMYK colour model based on the simulation target selected in the CMYK Simulation Profile.

[JapanColor(Canon]

This setting uses the JapanColor profile. This is for obtaining a printout closely matching the printing standard in Japan.

[US Web Ctd(Canon]

This setting uses the U.S. Web Coated profile. This is for obtaining a printout closely matching the printing standard in the USA.

[Euro Standard]

This setting uses the Euro Standard profile. This is for obtaining a printout closely matching the printing standard in Europe.

[None]

When this setting is selected, device dependent CMYK data is printed as is without applying the CMYK profile.

[Download Profile]

Set this to use profiles downloaded to the machine. Up to 100 profiles can be saved.

IMPORTANT
If the machine receives data with a device independent (CIE based) colour space definition, it is colour processed with the specified settings. Therefore 'CMYK Simulation Profile' is not applied by the machine. When a setting other than [None] is selected, and the machine receives a device dependent colour space definition that is colour processed by the host computer, 'CMYK Simulation Profile' is also applied by the machine.

NOTE
You can also download the profile from iW Management Console. When [None] is selected, areas of dark colour may be blotchy depending on the data. If a profile with the name of "None" is downloaded to the machine, the profile is not applied and the [None] setting on the menu is applied.
