Paper Tray
• If [Auto] is selected, but the actual paper loaded
in the tray does not match the [Paper Size] and
[Paper Type] settings (or the same paper is
loaded but the tray selection setting is not set to
[Auto Selection]), an error occurs and the job is
not printed. Select [Any] in [Paper Type].
(p. 3-12 "Paper Type")
• You can use the RISO Console to confirm the
paper size and paper type loaded in the printer
paper tray. See "[Consumables] Screen"
(p. 6-6) in "RISO Console".
Paper Type
• The machine selects the color profile that is
most suitable for your paper type. To print with
the appropriate color balance, match the printer
paper settings with the loaded paper.
• If [Any] is selected, communication may not be
established with the printer. If the printer's paper
settings are changed after sending a print job,
the paper type and image processing may not be
compatible.
Color profile
Colors on a monitor or other display are expressed in
terms of the three primary colors of light (RGB: red,
green, and blue), however colors printed with ink are
expressed in terms of the three primary colors (CMY:
cyan, magenta, and yellow).
Because CMY, which is used to express the colors
printed on paper, has fewer colors than RGB, which is
used to express colors displayed on a computer
monitor, the printer cannot print the colors exactly as
seen on the monitor. For this reason, it is necessary to
use a special method to convert RGB colors to CMY
colors so as to reproduce nearly the same colors or
natural colors.
This method is called "color management", and the
conversion table is called a "color profile".
With color management, the printer automatically
selects several types of color profiles to obtain the
optimal color according to the combination of the
original image and paper being used.
• This printer uses color profiles created and edited
based on the ColorSet technology licensed from
Monotype Imaging K.K.
