Phaser Printer Profiles
Phaser Printer Profiles are standard ICC profiles that describe the
Phaser 7760, 7750, and 7700 printers. A printer profile is a file describing
to the computer operating system's color management software how the
printer describes the colors it prints.
Printed Color Swatches
Refers to the color swatches used to create ICC profiles and calibration
data.
Printer Color Calibration
The checking and adjusting of the colors of the printer to standardize the
device to a known condition.
RGB Color Values
The numerical color values for the primaries Red, Green, and Blue that
are used by some output devices. These colors are referred to as device
dependent colors. The color values are typically generated Office
applications, such as Microsoft PowerPoint.
Spectrophotometer
Color measurement device; no support is provided for a densitometer (a
density meter).
Swatches
See
Printed Color Swatches.
Target Device Profiles
Standard ICC profiles that describe the color capabilities of output devices
such as printing presses or proofing devices. These files are used by
PhaserMatch to create link profiles. While the target device profiles
created by PhaserMatch are readable by any ICC-compatible application
or operating system, they are only intended for use by PhaserMatch.
TekColor Corrections
TekColor corrections are the color technology built into Xerox Phaser
printers. TekColor corrections give you the option of selecting from a
number of built-in color matching options, such as SWOP Press,
Euroscale Press, Commercial Press, and Fuji Press, as well as others.
New color corrections can be created with PhaserMatch.
