Optimizing for output type

The Fiery can be used for on-demand color printing and for color
proofing.
On-demand color printing refers to those jobs for which the
ES3640e MFP is the final print device. Printing jobs to the Fiery in
preparation for printing on an offset press is referred to as color
proofing. Both types of Fiery print jobs can use RGB, CMYK, and
spot colors.
Characteristics of on-demand
Bright, saturated colors are often
desirable.
Colors are achieved using the
full range of colors available,
referred to as the full
the printer or, more simply,
device CMYK.
Note:
when it is needed. You may be familiar with the term short-run,
which usually applies to the volume of a printing task. Although
these terms do not mean exactly the same thing, the term
on-demand in this manual applies also to short-run printing
scenarios. Because you can print as many pages as you need and
can reprint jobs quickly, the Fiery performs equally well in either
environment.
