Using Your Printer Software 2
The ColorSync color-matching system makes sure that colors look as consistent
as possible no matter what device you use to view them—monitor or printer. In
addition, ColorSync helps give you the best possible colors when you export the
image to another MacOS–based computer with ColorSync installed or when you
print it on another color printer.
With ColorSync turned on and the Automatic matching method selected, the
computer chooses the best matching method for the contents of the document
you are printing. With Automatic matching, the matching method varies from
object to object on each page to ensure the best matching for each object. If you
are not satisfied with the results, you can choose the option you want from the
Matching Method pop-up menu. Most of the time, however, the Automatic setting
is best.
Note:
If you are using a 13” Apple ColorSync monitor, the 13" monitor uses
the default system profile. If you are using a different monitor, you should
open the ColorSync control panel and select the correct system profile for
your monitor or PowerBook display. For the best color, you need to choose a
specific profile for your monitor. In the ColorSync control panel, choose the
D50 profile for your monitor. If there is no D50 profile available for your
monitor, choose Apple Multiple Scan 17 – D50. The D50 profile gives you
better colors.
