Starting Spot-On

To use Spot-On, you must specify the output profile associated with the Spot Color
Dictionary that you want to edit.
If you select Output profile X and redefine PANTONE 123 from 30%M to 50%M using
Spot-On, you will get 50%M when you print a job with Output profile X. If you print a job
with Output profile Y, you will get the original value. If you select Output profile X and create
a custom color named "My Purple" and define it as 80C 40M, ColorWise automatically
calculates the Lab values using Output profile X and creates new CMYK values for use with
Output profile Y.
The Fiery EXP8000/50 allows only one user to connect to Spot-On at a time.
