Phaser 560 Color Laser Printer
If your Phaser 560 printer is shared on a network
Another user may use the downloadable color correction utility files, or the
printer's front panel, to change the printer's default color correction setting.
If this situation occurs, the prints you make through a non-supported driver
may not print as expected. Refer to "Sharing the printer on a network" on
page 7-36 for details on how the color corrections interact with the driver
settings for either supported or non-supported drivers.
Application color corrections
Some applications perform color corrections to improve screen-to-printer
color matching. The TekColor color correction options in the supported
drivers adjust colors in the printer after the application has performed its
color corrections.
If the application uses CIE (Commission Internationale de
l'Eclairage) colors, the TekColor corrections will not be applied.
If you select a TekColor color correction option in a driver other
than None, the selection may override some application features.
If you try one of the TekColor color correction options in a
supported driver and the printed results are not what you
expected, then select the None option and try reprinting your
image.
Select the None TekColor color correction option in a supported
driver if you are using ColorSync color matching on a Macintosh
or host color correction in Windows 95 (refer to the CD-ROM or
World Wide Web ColorSync topics).
If you are using an unsupported driver
To use the color corrections with an unsupported driver that does not use
PPDs, use the downloadable utility files or the printer's front panel.
