Spot Color Editor overview

A spot color is a specially mixed ink that you can use to reproduce
colors that are difficult to reproduce with CMYK inks.

Individual job pages can contain RGB, CMYK, and spot color
elements.

The IC-309m print controller Spot Color Editor enables you to edit
the values of every spot color in the spot color dictionary. The
IC-309m print controller in turn translates these CMYK values to K
values only.The edited spot color is saved in a custom dictionary.
When the IC-309m print controller identifies a spot color in a job, it
looks for the name of the spot color in the Spot Color Library
according to the settings in the Job Parameters for that specific
job. If the setting for spot colors in the Job Parameters file is:

Spot Library—The IC-309m print controller looks for the name
of the spot color in the Spot Color Library in the following
sequence:

Custom global library

Predefined global library

Original CMYK File values

Original CMYK File values—The IC-309m print controller
uses the Original CMYK File values.

Note: Some PANTONE colors in the PANTONE PLUS color dictionary have
the same name as PANTONE colors in the legacy PANTONE color
dictionary. Therefore, in the Spot Color Editor the word Plus was added to
PANTONE PLUS color names to help you distinguish between colors in the
two libraries. In the job parameters windows, there is an option to select the
PANTONE Plus library or the Legacy PANTONE library.
