Managing colour on the ES3640e MFP
Rendering Style
The Rendering Style option specifies a CRD for colour conversions. To control the
appearance of images, such as prints from office applications or RGB photographs
from Photoshop, select the appropriate Rendering Style. The ES3640e MFP allows
you to select from the four rendering styles currently found in industry standard ICC
profiles.
Fiery rendering style

rendering style
Photographic
—Typically results
in less saturated output than
presentation rendering when
printing out-of-gamut colours.
It preserves tonal relationships
in images.
Photographs, including scans
and images from stock
photography CDs and digital
camera images.

Presentation
—Creates
saturated colours but does not
match printed colours precisely
to displayed colours. In-gamut
colours such as flesh tones are
rendered well; similar to the
Photographic rendering style.
Artwork and graphs in
presentations. In many cases, it
can be used for mixed pages
that contain both presentation
graphics and photographs.

Relative Colorimetric
—Provides
white-point transformation
between the source and
destination white points. For
example, the bluish gray colour
of a monitor will map to neutral
gray. You may prefer this style
to avoid visible borders when
not
printing full-bleed.
Advanced use when colour
matching is important, but you
prefer white colours in the
document to print as paper
white. It may also be used with
PostScript colour management
to affect CMYK data for
simulation purposes.

Provides
no
white point
transformation between the
source and destination white
points. For example, the bluish
gray of a monitor will map to a
bluish gray.
Situations when exact colours
are needed and visible borders
are not distracting. It may also
be used with PostScript colour
management to affect CMYK
data for simulation purposes.
