● Photoshop 5 Default CMYK
● Other HP Designjet printers can be emulated
In the front panel and the Embedded Web Server, some further options are available:
● Japan Color 2001 Coated uses the Japan Color 2001 specification for type 3 (coated) paper. It
is designed to produce quality separations using 350% total ink coverage, positive film, and
coated paper
● Japan Color 2001 Uncoated uses the Japan Color 2001 specification for type 4 (uncoated)
paper. It is designed to produce quality separations using 310% total ink coverage, positive film,
and uncoated paper
● Japan Web Coated (Ad) uses specifications developed by the Japan Magazine Publisher
Association for digital proofing of images in the Japanese magazine/advertising market
● Toyo is designed to produce quality separations for Toyo printing presses
● DIC is designed to produce quality separations for Dainippon Ink Company printing presses
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 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.
Connecting the printer
Your printer comes with a 100base-TX network interface (Fast Ethernet) for network connections,
and a FireWire interface for direct connection to your computer.
A USB 2.0 interface, 1000base-T (Gigabit Ethernet) network 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.
