Output profiles
provide information about the device to which you are
printing.
The “Using ICC Profiles” function allows both an input profile (e.g.
digital camera), and an output profile (e.g. your printer) to be
selected. It uses both these profiles to generate a CRD (Colour
Rendering Dictionary), and this is used to match the colours as closely
as possible.
This feature may not work for all application programs. However,
many professional graphics applications offer a similar feature in
their print settings, with the ability to choose a source (input) colour
space, and a print (output) colour space.
USING THE COLOUR CORRECT UTILITY
The Oki Colour Correct Utility is provided on your printer driver CD-
ROM. You must install it separately since it is not installed along with
the printer driver.
The Colour Correct utility has the following features:
>
Microsoft Office palette colours can be individually adjusted.
This is useful if you want to change how a specific colour is
printed.
>

Gamma. This is useful if you wish to change the overall colour
output.
Once these colour adjustments have been made, the new settings can
be selected from the printer driver Colour tab.
