Step 2 - Downloading ICC profiles to the printer storage device
You can download profiles to the printer storage device using the Profile Assistant utility.
Using Profile Assistant
1.
Launch Profile Assistant.
2.
Select a printer.
If this is the first time you have used Profile Assistant, you should allow the utility to
search for compatible printers. Select the connection types that you wish to search –
Parallel, USB or Network (TCP/IP), and click Start.
If you know the Printer's IP address, you can enter it manually.
3.
The main screen of Profile Assistant displays the profiles resident on the selected
printer's storage device. To download a new profile to the printer:
(a)
Click Add.
(b)
Select an ICC profile from your computer's hard disk.
(c)
Once you have selected a profile, you can add it to the printer as one of the 4
profile types - RGB Source, CMYK Simulation, Printer or Linked.
The options available will depend on which ICC profile you have selected. For
example, if you have selected a CMYK profile, you may only be able to add this
to the printer as a CMYK Simulation or Printer output profile.
(d)
Select a number from 1 to 12. This number is used to identify the profile in the
printer driver.
(e)
Click OK to download the ICC profile to the printer.
Step 3 - Select ICC profiles in the printer driver
What you select in the printer driver depends on the color matching task that you wish to
perform.
Examples of selecting ICC profiles for different color matching tasks are shown in the next
