EFI Fiery ES IC-418, Configuration And Setup, Page: 180 / 243

If
Composite overprint
is turned on for a job that contains spot colors, Spot-On must be activated on the Fiery ES.
Grayscale rendering intent
The
Grayscale rendering intent
option specifies a rendering intent for color conversion. This conversion can be
optimized for the type of gray objects being printed.
To control the appearance of text, graphics, and images in grayscale, select the appropriate rendering intent. The
Fiery ES allows you to select from the four rendering intents currently found in industry-standard ICC profiles.
Note: If you experience tone reproduction problems, use the Photographic setting.
Rendering intent Best used for Equivalent ICC rendering intent
Photographic
- Typically
results in less-saturated output
than presentation rendering
when printing out-of-gamut
colors. This style preserves
tonal relationships in images.
Photographs, including scans and images
from stock photography CDs and digital
camera images.
Image, Contrast, and Perceptual
Presentation
- Creates
saturated colors but does not
match printed colors precisely
to displayed colors. In-gamut
colors, such as flesh tones, are
rendered well. This style is
similar to the Photographic
rendering intent.
Artwork and graphs in presentations. This
style can be used for mixed pages that
contain presentation graphics and
photographs.
Saturation, Graphics
Relative Colorimetric
- Provides
white point transformation
between the source and
destination white points. For
example, the bluish-white color
(gray) of a monitor is replaced
by paper white. This style
avoids visible borders between
blank spaces and white objects.
Advanced use when color matching is
important, but you prefer white colors in the
document to print as paper white.
Relative Colorimetric
Absolute Colorimetric -
Provides no white point
transformation between the
source and destination white
points. For example, the bluish-
white color (gray) is not
replaced by paper white.
Situations when exact colors are needed and
visible borders are not distracting.
