Introduction

This chapter offers hints for automatic color control and fine-tuning
color output, discusses color matching, and lists the printer-resident
fonts.

Q

COLOR

Automatic Color Control

As with any form of color reproduction, many variables can
contribute to the final appearance of color laser prints. To take the
guesswork out of optimizing color output, QMS developed
Q

COLOR

, which dynamically configures the magicolor LX for the

best output quality based on the contents of the document (text, line
art, photographs, or scans) and the media it will be printed on.
Q

COLOR

technology is accessed through our Windows or

Macintosh driver.

Enabling Q

COLOR

for Windows

To use Q

COLOR

for Windows, first follow the instructions in

“Installing the Windows 3.1 Driver” in chapter 3, “Connecting the
Printer,” if you haven’t already. After the QMS Windows driver is
installed, do the following to optimize color printing:

1.

Open the PostScript Printer driver dialog box.

You can do this from the Windows Control Panel by
double-clicking the Printers icon and then choosing the Setup
button. Also, you can get to the PostScript Printer driver dialog
box from within most Windows applications—usually by
choosing Print Setup from the File menu, and then choosing
the Setup or the Options button. Check your application help
or documentation for details.
