Adjusting Color Balance

You can adjust the color tints when printing.
Since this function adjusts color balance of the output by changing the ink ratios of each
color, it changes the total color balance of the document. Use the application software when
you want to change the color balance significantly. Use the printer driver only when you
want to adjust the color balance slightly.
The following sample shows the case when color balance is used to intensify cyan and to
diminish yellow so that the overall colors are more uniform.

No adjustment Adjust color balance

The procedure for adjusting color balance is as follows:

1.

Select

Color Options

from the pop-up menu of the

Print Dialog

2.

Adjust color balance

There are individual sliders for

Cyan

,

Magenta

, and

Yellow

. Each color becomes

stronger when the corresponding slider is moved to the right, and becomes weaker
when the corresponding slider is moved to the left. For example, when cyan becomes
weaker, the color red becomes stronger.
You can also directly enter a value linked to the slider. Enter a value in the range
from -50 to 50. The current settings are displayed in the settings preview on the left
side of the printer driver.
