Controlling printed color
When working with color materials, whether they be presentations, illustra-
tions, or complicated page designs, you make aesthetic decisions about the
colors you use. Once you have decided on your goal, you then need to real-
ize it in print. Your color printing system becomes an ally in this creative
process to the extent that you can get results that are predictable.
•
If you have designed a brochure to print on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP, you
want the printed colors to match the design specification.
•
If you are printing presentations on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP, you want to
preserve the vivid colors in the monitor display.
•
If you are working with color that will print on press, you want the
DocuColor 4 LP/CP output to match prepress proofs.
The type of print job and the final print device either the DocuColor 4 LP/CP
printer/copier or an offset press, determine the methodology you use to
achieve optimal results.
No matter what your goals are, two hardware factors always impact color
print output: print device consistency and the range of colors the print de-
vice can print, known as its gamut. These factors are covered briefly in this
chapter. Creating successful color documents and presentations also requires
an understanding of color management software as it is implemented by the
DocuColor 4 LP/CP and on your desktop computer. Most of this chapter is
devoted to discussing the various elements of color management that con-
tribute to predictable color results.
6.2.1
Maintaining print device consistency
The factors described below affect print device consistency, as well as color
fidelity and overall output quality.
Paper stock and Dry Ink
The paper and Dry Ink used by the print device can greatly affect printed
color. For best results, use the consumables recommended by the manufac-
turer of your printer/copier.
