Toner Coverage information

Native pre-ripped images or graphics consisting of more than 90% ink coverage for each
color separation resulting in a total toner coverage of greater than 360% must not be
processed with GCR = 'None' option. Failure to adhere to this requirement can lead to
uneven densities and/or image off-setting at the fuser. These will result in extended and
excessive service calls. Overall, productivity may be impacted due to an increase in
machine downtime.
For the remaining GCR options of " low" , " medium (default)" and " high" , there are no
restrictions on total toner coverage for pre-ripped native files.

PPDs and Print Drivers

PPDs are provided for Windows /98/NT 4.x /2000/ME/XP and for Apple Macintosh.
Although it is recommended to use MAC OS 9.2.1 or higher, it is recommended to use
Apple LaserWriter 8.6.1 if you have MAC OS 8.51-8.x.x or LaserWriter 8.7 for MAC OS
9.0-9.x as the MAC printer driver. Unknown issues may arise if a MAC OS lower than
9.2.1 is used with the CSX2000 system. The LaserWriter 8.7 driver is included with the
MAC OS disks and will not be included with the CSX2000 system CDs. The PC drivers
are automatically installed when the printers are installed in the respective PC platforms
(Please refer to the user's manual for further installation information).
Note: Version 2.0 has a new PPD identified as CSX2K2_0.PPD. Please ensure the new
PPD is installed on MAC Clients and that all virtual-printers are updated on all clients
accordingly.

Color Calibration Look-Up Tables

The color look-up tables included in version 1.0 were not optimal under industry standard
calibration test patterns such GATF and others. Under version 1.1, these tables have
been enhanced to take full advantage of DC2000 engine color gamut. In version 2.0, the
tables have been further enhanced to correct some other issues discovered with the
previous tables. A " Calibration Slider" utility has been implemented for those customers
who would like to further manipulate the color tables offered by version 2.0.
