NOTE:

These options have no effect if the application is defining its own CMYK space, known as

calibrated CMYK or CIEBasedDEFG in PostScript terminology.

RGB color emulation

These options apply to PDF, PostScript, TIFF and JPEG files. For HP-GL/2 and HP RTL files, only sRGB
and AdobeRGB are supported.

If you want to print an RGB image, it must be converted to CMYK data (although you may be able to do
it in the application or operating system). To perform this conversion, your printer is provided with the
following color profiles:

None (Native): no emulation. The printer will use its default internal conversion from RGB to CMYK,
without following any color standard. This does not imply that results will be bad.

sRGB IEC61966-2.1 emulates the characteristics of the average PC monitor. This standard space
is endorsed by many hardware and software manufacturers, and is becoming the default color
space for many scanners, printers and software applications.

ColorMatch RGB emulates the native color space of Radius Pressview monitors. This space
provides a smaller gamut alternative to Adobe RGB (1998) for print production work.

Apple RGB emulates the characteristics of the average Apple monitor, and is used by a variety of
desktop publishing applications. Use this space for files that you plan to display on Apple monitors,
or for working with old desktop publishing files.

Adobe RGB (1998) provides a fairly large gamut of RGB colors. Use this space if you need to do
print production work with a broad range of colors.

Connect the printer

Your printer comes with a 1000base-TX (Gigabit Ethernet) interface for network connections and a
FireWire interface for direct connection to your computer.

A USB 2.0 interface or Jetdirect print server may be installed as optional accessories.

If you are not sure which interface to use, see

Choose which connection method to use on page 10

.

To find the sockets for these interfaces on your printer, see the Assembly Instructions.

To set up your operating system to use the printer, see one of the following:
