Color Control Strip Feature - Tektronix Phaser 300X User Manual

Using the rear panel switches for color correction is only necessary
if you are not set up to use the Phaser 300X drivers. If you are
using TekColor Dynamic Correction in the Phaser 300X drivers,
the settings you choose in the driver override the rear panel
switches for prints you make from the driver.
For complete information on color correction, refer to the
Phaser 300X Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference.
Using color sampler charts provided on the Phaser 300X CD-ROM and
diskettes.
The Phaser 300X CD-ROM and diskettes contain color sampler
charts for CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black), RGB (red,
green, and blue), HSB (hue, saturation, and brightness), and
PANTONE Colors. The charts consist of colored rectangles and
coordinate values. Print out the appropriate chart for your
application, and use the coordinate values to select colors within
an application. For example, your printer can produce
PANTONE-approved process color simulations. Use the
PANTONE Color sampler chart to select the process color values
within software applications that best simulate PANTONE Colors
on the Phaser 300X.
For details on printing the charts, refer to the Phaser 300X Drivers
and Utilities Printing Reference.

Color Control Strip feature

The printer software also includes the Color Control Strip feature, which
allows you to check the consistency of printed colors between prints made
on the same printer, as well as between prints made on more than one of the
same type or model of printer. When this option is selected in the printer
driver, the printed page includes a band of colors along the bottom edge; the
colors in this band reflect the currently selected color correction. For more
information, refer to the Phaser 300X Drivers and Utilities Printing Reference.
