Troubleshooting Color Problems 75
3
Registration Page. The registration page ( Print Menu/
Registration ) prints color test patterns so you can see whether all of
the colors are registered (lined up) properly. The registration page always
prints at 600x600 dpi resolution.
4
Vivid Setting. This setting is optimized for transparencies, mapping the
monitor’s solid colors to the printer’s solid colors so the intensity matches.
If graphics don’t match monitor colors, turn Vivid on.
This setting may not work well for images, so experiment with it to find
the best setting for your print job.
5
RGB Source. This setting needs to match the profile for the document
being printed.
Some applications tell the RGB source. If your document or
application lists the RGB source, set the printer to match. If it does not,
you can experiment with this setting to find the best option for your
print job.
If dots of cyan or magenta appear in what should be solid yellow
blocks, such as the highlighter feature in Microsoft Word or the table
and spreadsheet cell fills in Microsoft Word or Excel, set the RGB
Source to None.
6
Color Matching. If you see spots of toner around the edges of text, if
colors are too dark or too saturated, or if toner is so thick that it flakes off
the finished page, check whether Quick Color Configuration (on the
Features tab in your printer driver) is set to None. If it is, choose one of the
other options from the drop-down list. All of the other color configuration
options regulate the amount of toner that goes on the page, making sure
that the total amount is within the range that the printer can fuse to the
media.
7
Other Color Problems. Most other color printing problems arise from
color management issues in the application that was used to create the
job or from which you are printing the job.
Check the application documentation for advice on color
management.
