Color adjustment options

The aim of color management is to print accurate colors. If you perform color management correctly, then
you should be able to print accurate colors with no need of any manual color adjustments.

However, manual adjustments may be useful in the following situations:

If your color management is not working correctly for some reason

If you want colors that are subjectively pleasing rather than accurate

The printer driver provides different adjustment facilities depending on whether you are printing in color
or in grayscale.

Printing in color

You can adjust the colors of your print in similar ways under Windows and Mac OS:

In the Windows driver dialog: select the Color tab, ensure that the Advanced Color
Adjustments
box is checked, then press the Settings button beside it.

In the Mac OS Print dialog (PostScript driver): select the Color Options panel, then
Lightness and Hue.

In the Mac OS Print dialog (PCL driver): select the Paper Type/Quality panel, then
Lightness and Hue.
