Profile Manager
Profile Manager allows you to manage and edit ICC profiles. In the case of the RIP Station,
this means simulations, accepted industry standards for simulating output of a press. You
can print to the RIP Station and your printed output simulates the range of colors a press
would produce.

Changing the RIP Station default simulation affects all jobs for all users, so you
might want to limit the number of people authorized to use ColorWise Pro Tools.
Several simulations are provided with the RIP Station, and you can create additional ones as
needed by modifying the existing ones. You can also download simulations from any
workstation to the RIP Station. The simulations provided are:
• SWOP-COM/M— SWOP Commercial 3M Match Print
• SWOP-COM/F— SWOP Commercial FujiColorArt Print
• Euroscale— European press standard
• DIC— Japanese press standard
• DuPont WaterProof
®
(PUB, MAT, COM)— Proofing standard for negative commercial
printing
• DuPont Cromalin
®
(PUB, MAT, COM)— European proofing standard for offset printing
DuPont Color Proofing
The six DuPont qualified simulations— DuPont WaterProof (PUB, MAT, and COM) and
DuPont Cromalin (PUB, MAT, and COM)— were created by DuPont. These simulations
were designed for precise color output that will match the color of these proofing products.
The DuPont Cromalin COM and DuPont WaterProof COM simulations are only valid
when using the DuPont/EPSON Commercial Proofing Paper. The DuPont Cromalin
MAT and DuPont WaterProof MAT simulations are only valid when using the
DuPont/EPSON Matte Proofing Paper. The DuPont Cromalin PUB and DuPont
WaterProof PUB simulations are only valid when using the DuPont/EPSON Publication
Proofing Paper. The use of any other media invalidates the color fidelity and can produce
unpredictable color results.
Setting the default simulation
The default simulation is applied to all print jobs sent to the RIP Station, unless the user
chooses a per-job simulation. Therefore, the default should be the most commonly used
simulation.
