Description
Before an RGB image can be printed, the
file's color data must be converted to the
printer's CMYK color space. Color
rendering dictionaries apply optimal gamut
mapping methods to documents that
contain text, photographs and illustrations.
The Photographic CRD optimizes the range
of colors on the printer to produce the best
results for photographic or bitmapped
images.
The Presentation CRD optimizes the output
of pure, saturated colors such as those
used in business presentations.
The Transparency CRD improves the
correspondence between monitor colors
and printed color on transparency paper.

rendering dictionaries" on

NOTE:
• Color rendering dictionaries cannot be
used with CMYK files.
By default your printer is set to print
documents in color (CMYK). Select
Grayscale to print documents in grayscale
or CMY to print using Cyan, Magenta and
Yellow toner only. This setting allows you to
print drafts of color images more quickly
than in CMYK mode. The CMY option is
only available when the printer's print
resolution is set to 600
the CMY option applies the Photographic
CRD to photos, and the Presentation CRD
to text and illustrations.
