Setting Up The Printer Driver; Selecting A Label Stock - QuickLabel Kiaro! 50 User Manual

Setting up the Printer Driver

Kiaro! 50 User Guide
• Use in-gamut colors - When designing in color, ensure you use colors that are
within the printing gamut. Most design applications will indicate when a color is out
of gamut.
For example, in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, out-of-gamut colors are indicated
by an exclamation point icon in the Color palette.
Out-of-gamut colors cannot be accurately printed. There are often colors that can
be found to replace out-of-gamut colors.
• If the application supports color management, enable it - Professional design
applications support color management. This option is typically found in the
application's print window.
Ensure the Color Adjustment in the Kiaro! printer driver is set to "Application
Managed". Color management should be enabled in either the design application
or printer driver, but not both.

Before you print using a third-party application, you will need to select the appropriate
