Colour Management

What is Colour management?

Definition
The colour management settings help you to reproduce the colours of your input as pre-
cisely as possible on the printed output.
With the colour management settings you define how to convert the colour-information
of the file you want to print (input colour space; RGB or CMYK colour space) to the
output colour space of the Océ ColorWave 650 (CMYK colour space). This conversion
can require approximations in order to preserve the image's most important colour
qualities.
To be able to reproduce colours it is important to define the following.
• Input profile / Standardisation
• Colour feel / Rendering intents
• Output profile
