With the introduction of the
magicolor 2+, we have also added a CRD RGB Source
selection in the Printer Specific pop-up menu. The CRD RGB Source allows you to
pick the type of monitor you are using. Again, you will select Apple RGB since this
is a common profile for most Macintosh monitors. This feature will allow a more accu-
rate screen to final output match when using this QMS Advanced Level 2 Color Match-
ing option.
As you have discovered, the magicolor 2+ provides a variety of color matching
options that allows you to custom tailor a specific color matching setup for your partic-
ular needs.
The magicolor 2+ allows the downloading of custom ICC profiles that will be stored on
the printer. These custom profiles can be accessed through a PPD or a QMS-
supplied driver on a per-job basis. From the keypad, you can also set a custom profile
as the default on the printer. To view the current profiles on the
magicolor 2+, access
Special Pages under the Administration menu and select Yes under CMM Profile
Page.
Listed below are the steps for downloading a custom ICC profile to the magicolor 2+
printer. Your
magicolor 2+ must be an EXD model or a magicolor 2+ that has an inter-
nal hard drive. You can not download profiles to external hard drives.
1 After a custom ICC RGB Source or Simulation profile has been created,
rename the profile so it can be recognized by the printer.
This renaming is done, so the PPD for Macintosh, Windows 95 PPD, and Win-
dows NT driver can correctly identify the profile.
You must name your custom ICC RBG Source profile either custrgb1.icc,
custrgb2.icc, or custrgb3.icc. Listed below is an example of some custom ICC
RGB Source profiles and how they would be renamed.
