Stages in the process of making a colour print
Printer drivers
The (Océ Windows printer driver) offers colour
management settings. You can select the required colour
management settings in the driver or you can indicate to
use the printer's default settings. Make sure the colour
settings do not conflict with the colour settings that may
be set in another stage of the process.
The Océ Settings Editor offers 3 default paths for colour
settings, based on the file type of the document:
HP-GL path
TIFF path
PostScript/PDF path
These settings are applied when the controller cannot
recognise or detect any colour settings for the file to be
printed.
Note: It is advised to align the colour management settings that have been made in
the different stages before you start the print job. The colour space of the document
and the settings for the print have to match. This means that if you have set the colour
settings in more than 1 stage of the process described above, you must check if the
colour settings do not counteract with eachother.
Job submission-file type-colour management settings
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 Settings Editor.
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
Note: The Océ HDI driver and the
®
PostScript driver do not support the settings
for colour management. With the drivers you
can only indicate to use the default printer
settings for colour management. In this case
the printer will use the colour settings for the
HP-GL path defined in the Océ Settings
Editor.
