[ICC Profile]:	You can select a matching method, which is an adjustment method for bridging the difference in input and output color space width between the input profile that depends on the color space of the input data, and the output profile that defines the device-dependent color space.
[Gamma]:	You can select a gamma correction value selection for adjusting the brightness in relation to the median color (color value with the maximum and minimum values taken away) of the entered data.

[RGB Source Profile]

You can select an RGB profile that is suitable for the features of the monitor that you are using. Set it when printing images drawn with an RGB color model or documents that contain images.

You can set it for these data types: [Text], [Graphics] or [Image].

[sRGB v3.0 (Canon)]:	It can be set to general Windows computer monitor profiles defined by industry standards. When using monitors that support RGB, you can print colors close to the colors displayed on the monitor.
[Canon HDTV gamma 1.5 Monitor]: [Canon HDTV gamma 1.8 Monitor]: [Canon HDTV gamma 2.4 Monitor]:	You can adjust the gamma correction level of RGB data. The higher the value, the darker the printing.

[Output Profile]

You can define suitable profiles for data that you are trying to print.

You can set it for these data types: [Text], [Graphics] or [Image].

[Normal]:	It matches with colors close to the colors displayed on the monitor, and prints.
[Photo]:	It matches with colors similar to photographs, and prints.

[Matching Method]

You can set it for these data types: [Text], [Graphics] or [Image].

[Perceptual]:	It provides colors suitable for printing photos and bitmap images.
[Saturation]:	It provides colors suitable for printing artwork and graphs for use in presentations.
[Colorimetric]:	It reproduces as accurately as possible the RGB color values that are within the machine's color gamut.

[Gamma Correction]

It adjusts the brightness of the printed result so that the brightest and darkest parts of the document are not lost. Set it when the print result is brighter than the original (such as a photograph prior to being scanned or a graphic created on a monitor) or when you want to change the brightness of the output. The larger the setting value, the darker it is printed. [1.4] shows no correction

You can set it for these data types: [Text], [Graphics] or [Image].

[Photo Optimizer PRO]

Correct the contrast, color balance, saturation and gradation of photos and illustrations to your preference.

The setting for this item becomes invalid for B&W data.

If [Color Mode] is set as [Black and White], the setting for this item becomes invalid.
