SETTINGS
Here you set the speed and power values for the color you have created. Adjust the
sliders to the values that you want and click on the ADD button. You should see the color you
entered with the speed and power show up in the list of colors on the right. Please be careful
not to add the same color to the list twice. Each setting must have a different color. If you
want to change the speed and power for a color that is already in the list, just click on the entry
you want to change. Now move the speed and power controls to the new values and click on
the MODIFY button. If you have made a mistake, click on the entry you want to remove and
then click on the DELETE button.
DITHER COLORS
If you have an X in this box, the colors will be given a texture. If the box is empty, the
colors will engrave out as a smooth solid.
When you are finished, click on the DONE button and you will go back to the previous
screen. If you don’t want the changes you have made to stick, click on the CANCEL button
and everything you have done will be forgotten.
You will need to be sure that your drawing program uses an RGB model for colors.
CorelDRAW! and most other drawing programs have several color methods, and you will need
to make sure you always use RGB. With Corel, when you assign a color using the fill tool,
you will see a field with CMYK and a scroll button. Click on the button and select RGB. Then
you will see Red, Green and Blue control buttons that match those in the Print driver. If you
fill an object with a color that is defined in the color maps, the speed and power for that color
will be used.
