Rendering Intent

When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the
document’s color space to the printer color space. The rendering
intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this color
conversion takes place.

Select the option desired.

Auto

The best default select as this selects the optimal settings for
a general office environment.

Perceptual

Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the
source gamut into the printer’s gamut whilst maintaining the
overall appearance of an image. This may change the
overall appearance of an image as all the colors are shifted
together.

Saturation

Best choice for printing bright and saturated colors if you
don’t necessarily care how accurate the colors are. This
makes it the recommended choice for graphs, charts,
diagrams etc. Maps fully saturated colors in the source
gamut to fully saturated colors in the printer’s gamut.

Relative Colorimetric

Good for proofing CMYK color images on a desktop printer.
Much like Absolute Colorimetric, except that it scales the
source white to the (usually) paper white; i.e. unlike Absolute
Colorimetric, this attempts to take the paper white into
account.
