Managing color on the Fiery
In certain cases, you may want to customize the default output profile using the
ColorWise Pro Tools Color Editor to achieve particular color effects (see
If you do so, the new customized output profile is applied to all data in the print job.
Changing the output profile only does not affect its associated calibration target
(since the target is based on a copier model). You can edit D-Max values of the
calibration target separately (see
Use the ColorWise Pro Tools Profile Manager to download your own output profile to
the Fiery (see
). Downloaded output profiles are at first associated with the
calibration target that is tied to the default output profile. You can edit calibration
target D-Max values separately.
If you are printing with the PostScript driver from a Windows computer and have
enabled Two-Way Communication, the name of each downloaded or custom profile is
represented in the Output Profile setting menu. If you are printing with the AdobePS
driver from a Mac OS computer, downloaded or custom profiles appear as Output-1
through Output-10. For more information on Two-Way Communication, see the
User Software Installation Guide
Pure Black Text/Graphics
The Pure Black Text/Graphics option affects the printout for black text and
on a page. Under most circumstances, leave this option set to On. When
Pure Black Text/Graphics is on, black colors generated by applications are printed
using 100 percent black-only toner (for example, RGB = 0, 0, 0; CMYK = 0%, 0%,
0%, 100%; or K = 100%). This means the black text and line art will not exhibit
halftone
and will not be misregistered, since there is only one toner used.
In addition, this setting eliminates
. This option is automatically set to On
when the Black Overprint option is set to On.
For some jobs, it is preferable to clear this option, for example, if the page includes
fills that use black. The following table describes the behavior of the Pure
Black Text/Graphics option with black data defined in different color spaces.
