Color Correction Options Descriptions
Automatic Color matching is performed based on default color settings. For
details, refer to Color Reproduction Settings on page 82.
ICM
(System Corrected)
Specifies how the color is processed in the print job in order to match
the original as much as possible. Image Color Management (ICM)
technology relies upon associating an output device like a printer
with a Color Profile. An ICM Profile for a printer contains
information about rendering accurate color information for that
device. For further details about making these settings, refer to the
next section, ICM Settings.
ICM is available in Windows 2000/XP only.
None
(Application Corrected)
Color matching is only performed by the application.

monitor in RGB mode.
sRGB (HDTV): RGB color matching based on HDTV standards.

based on CMYK inks. This option requires that the PDL be set to
KPDL. For further details, refer to Page Description Language
(PDL) Settings on page 36.

standards. SWOP Press: Simulation based on American offset
printing standards.
Color Reproduction If Automatic is set for Color Correction, Color
Reproduction settings can be made. Objects within the document
being printed are separated into three types; images, text, and
graphs. The Color Reproduction mode is matched for each.
Reproduction can be closer to the original and more vivid than the
colors displayed on the monitor. For further details about making
these settings, refer to Color Reproduction Settings on page 82.
