Before You Start
ColorWise
™
CRDs (color rendering dictionaries) take full advantage of the
colors available on your printer. PostScript 3 RGB files are converted to the
printer’s CMYK color space during processing—optimizing them for
rendering and printing. CRDs available with the PostScript driver include:
•
Photographic
•
Presentation
•
Transparency
Using the PostScript driver an image’s RGB data can be also converted to
the color space and gamut of the KX-P8420 printer using RGB source
profiles. Profiles available include:
•
EFIRGB
•
sRGB (PC)
•
Apple Standard
In addition, CMYK simulation settings can be used to simulate popular
offset printing press standards. Simulation settings include:
•
SWOP
•
Euroscale
•
DIC
ColorWise VisualCal
™
allows experienced users to calibrate the KX-P8420
for excellent color output—eliminating out-of-calibration color most printers
experience over time.
ColorWise Color Adjustment provides controls for globally modifying toner
density and brightness.
ColorWise Business Color specifies the application of toner using a
diffusion dither pattern, which is ideal for color fills and blends commonly
found in charts and graphs used in business applications.
