CMS Option Tool Overview
The CMS (Color Management System) optional tool is installed using GUI software added to
the remote PC.
The CMS Option tool has the following features:
•
Creating a color conversion table
•
Creating a calibration table
You can use the CMS Option Tool to add paper color characteristics and CMYK ink
characteristics. When adding characteristics, the printer will generate a color conversion table.
This table will be used and allow you to specify paper color characteristics or CMYK ink
characteristics. You can add these selections when making job queue settings.
Over the course of time, the printer's color characteristics are often altered during printing. The
process to correct those color inconsistencies is called calibration. You can create a color
correction table using the CMS Option Tool for calibration. If you have a duplex configuration,
you can perform calibration on both printers.
