Matching Method
[Perceptual]*, [Saturation], [Colorimetric]
This setting allows you to specify a method of printing when the "RGB Source Profile" is applied. This machine includes a color management system that provides the following color rendering styles.
Settings can be applied separately for text, graphics, and image data.
[Perceptual]
This setting produces the best results for photographic or bitmapped images.
[Saturation]
This setting is best suited for printing illustrations and diagrams used in business presentations.
[Colorimetric]
This setting provides a close match to the RGB color value of the machine's printing range.
When setting this from the touch panel display, specify the following settings to match the settings of the printer driver.
Printer driver settings | Touch panel display settings |
100% GCR Profile | RGB Matching Method | Output Profile | Matching Method |
On | General | TR Photo | Perceptual |
On | Perceptual | TR Normal | Perceptual |

On | Vivid Photo | TR Photo | Saturation |
Off | General | Photo | Perceptual |

NOTE |
If [None] is selected for the 'RGB Source Profile', and the machine receives a device dependent color space definition that is color processed by the host computer, a Matching Method setting is not applied. |
