Color Management
The RGB Source setting does not override other source profile settings in cases where
you use the printer driver or your application’s color management system to perform
color conversions. For example, if you print with Windows 95 using Image Color
Matching (as described above), the printer driver performs the color conversion and
sends CMYK data to the DocuColor 40 CP. In another example, if you assign an ICM
source profile to an RGB image placed in a document, the application performs the
conversion to CMYK and the assigned source profile is not overridden by the RGB
Source setting. (See the application notes for information on the color management
tools available with different applications.)
Target profiles
The target profile, or printer profile, contains information about the color space and
gamut of the target print device. If you use the “Use image color matching” option of
the Adobe driver for Window 95, you must install the printer profile that ICM will use
to perform its color conversions.
Some applications let you assign ICM target profiles to RGB images that you place in a
document (see the application notes). When you print the document, the application
performs color conversions on the placed images, using the profiles you specified, and
embeds the resulting color data in the document. Three rendering styles are included
in an ICM profile, each tailored for a specific type of color output (see page 2-9).
See Chapter 4 for information on print option settings that affect printed color.
