Colour management settings and job submission

Colour management settings and job submission
The way in which you submit a print job to the printer defines in most cases the file type
of the document. If you use a printer driver, the original file type will be changed by the
driver into a standard file type. The printer checks the file type of the document and
based on the file type the printer applies the default colour management settings of the
Océ Express WebTools.
If you use FTP or LPR to send a job to the printer, the file type is not changed. The file
is sent to the printer the way in which it was saved in the application you used to create
or edit the file. If there is no embedded colour profile present in the document, the
printer checks the file type of the document and based on the file type the printer applies
the default colour management settings of the Océ Express WebTools.
If you want to use the embedded colour profile for your print job (for example, embedded
profile created with Adobe
the WPD driver where you can indicate to follow the colour settings managed by the
application. You can also send the job via FTP or LPR. If the controller can recognise
the embedded colour profile, it will be applied. If the embedded colour profile cannot
be recognised, the controller applies the default colour settings managed by the Océ Express
WebTools.
