Photos—Photographic
Text—Presentation
Illustrations—Presentation)
Before an RGB image can be printed, the
file’s color data must be converted to the
printer’s CMYK color space. Color
Rendering Dictionaries (CRDs) apply
optimal gamut mapping methods to
documents that contain text, photographs
and illustrations.
The Photographic CRD optimizes the range
of colors on the printer to produce the best
results for photographic or bitmapped
images.
The Presentation CRD optimizes the output
of pure, saturated colors such as those
used in business presentations.
The Transparency CRD improves the
correspondence between monitor colors
and printed color on transparencies.
For additional information, see “Color
rendering dictionaries” on

Device Options
Optional printer accessories installed on
your printer must be specified from the
printer driver to enable their related
features. For example, the Check and Print
and Electronic Collation features are not
enabled unless a hard disk drive has been
specified as a device installed on the
printer. Options include: 2nd Feeder, Hard
Disk.
Electronic Collation
(Default: No)
If your printer has a hard disk, you can use
this option to collate copies of your print job.
This option allows the pages of each copy
of a print job to be printed in sequence. If
your printer does not have a hard disk drive
or this option is set to Off, multiple copies of
each page of a print job are printed in
sequence. To avoid unexpected results,
always specify collation using this option,
and turn off any collation option that may
exist in your application.
Electronic Collation is available only
on printers with a hard disk drive.
