3.9 Creating Media Profiles
–
For Color Printer Setup
You must create a
Media Profile
for each media type you use with the specific color printer. Otherwise,
your color copy output colors will not necessarily match the original
’
s colors. Optimal quality color results
are only obtained if the capture device (scanner) and output device (printer) "see" colors in the same way
on a given output media. A
Media Profile
is a unit that stores data that matches scanner and printer colors
on a given media.
Before you start a copy job, you select a
Media Type (Menu
button
)
that corresponds with the media in
your printer and the Media Profile you prepared. By this action you are harmonizing scanner, printer and
media color factors for achieving optimal color precision in your copies.
A
Media Profile
is connected solely to a specific printer and media type so you will need to create new
media profiles if any of these (printer or print-media) are changed.
