Appendix A: About Printer Tables
A-2
Standard Tables"
Each printer table is named according to its correction
formula. The standard 45 printer tables consist of all
combinations of one of the available gamma correction
values", (1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.5, 2.8) and one
of the available black level values (-40, -30, -20, -10, 0).
For example, the printer table SG16BN30 has a gamma
correction value of 1.6 and a black level value of -30.
The standard tables are all set for a hue shift of 0 , a
saturation level of 100%, and an automatic contrast
calculation.
Custom Windows Tables
Four custom tables are included with the Windows ver-
sion of the Export Module.
SLINEAR.TBL—this table does not modify the digital
color data it receives from the application. It outputs the
same values it receives, and so allows you to use
calibrated digital color data directly from a color
calibration program.
SLEMON.TBL—the XLS 8600/XLS 8600 PS Printer
produces a yellow hue commonly associated with
photographic applications. This table has a color matrix
that modifies the yellow digital image data it receives.
These modified values produce a lighter shade of yellow,
which is better suited for graphic arts applications.
SPHOTOCD.TBL—use this table to obtain maximum
image quality from Photo CD images that were opened
using the RGB video metric.
SDEFAULT.TBL—this table has the same correction
values as the XLS Default selection and the
SG20BN20.TBL printer table.
