Image Processing
The differences between the way your printer and monitor produce color explain why your
printed document can look different from what you see on your screen. To compensate for
these differences, the colors are converted by your printer using image processing. Image
processing is the process of translating your computer file into printer toner. Your printer uses
TekColor Correction to translate color from your computer to your printer.
Adjusting Color Using TekColor Correction
The TekColor correction options provide simulations of different color devices. Automatic is
the default correction for general image processing. See the following table to determine what
option you want to use.
