RGB Source Profile
Select a suitable profile for RGB data that matches the monitor that you are using.
sRGB v3.0 (Canon)
Canon HDTV gamma 1.5
Canon HDTV gamma 1.8
Canon HDTV gamma 2.4
|
<sRGB v3.0 (Canon)>
An RGB profile is used that is similar to an average profile of most Windows PC monitors. When using a monitor that supports sRGB, you can print colors close to the colors displayed on the monitor.
<Canon HDTV gamma 1.5> to <Canon HDTV gamma 2.4>
When you want a brightness adjustment after making comparison between the printed colors and the colors displayed on the monitor, make a necessary setting here. The higher the value, the darker the printed colors.
CMYK Sim. Profile
You can select a simulation target when printing CMYK data. The machine converts CMYK data to a device-dependent CMYK color model in accordance with the selected simulation target.
Euro Standard v1.00
JapanColor(Canon)
U.S. Web Coated v1.0
|
<Euro Standard v1.00>
Use the Euro Standard profile. Printing is performed in colors that are close to the European printing standards.
<JapanColor(Canon)>
Use the JapanColor profile. Printing is performed in colors that are close to the Japanese printing standards.
<U.S. Web Coated v1.0>
