Using the Image Quality
– Color Matching dropdown
Step Procedure
1 Select None if color correcting the image for printing has already been done
or if using third party color matching software
OR
Select System Color Management to allow the Printer Driver to make color
corrections similar to the Algebraic option but through a more complex color
matching algorithm. (Note: This option shifts colors more radically so the
colors in the image will more closely match how they appear on screen.)
Step Procedure
2 Control the overall darkness and lightness of the dye-sub printed image by
adjusting the Dye-Sub Intensity slide by clicking and dragging the slide's
box.
Move the slide to the left to cause less heat to be used in the printing
process, thus generating a lighter print.
OR
Move the slide to the right to cause more heat to be used, thus
generating a darker print
(Note: This slide only affects those images printed with dye-sublimation
Ribbon Panels (YMC).)
