Profiles for Host-based Color Management

Some software applications use host-based color management and work
best with color profiles tailored specifically for that purpose. Two of these
profiles are included on the Software Utilities CD-ROM that came with your
printer:
mc2350s.icm for standard quality
mc2350h.icm for high or enhanced quality
The readme files on the CD-ROM include directions on how to use and where
to load each profile. These specialized profiles are useful for work with
Microsoft ICM2 for Windows, Apple ColorSync, CorelDRAW, Kodak KCMS,
Adobe Photoshop, and others.

CMM Test Page

A utility that allows you to preview color matching choices is included on the
Software Utilities CD-ROM that came with your printer. The file includes a
complete list of available profiles with descriptive information about each. In
addition, it allows you to preview the effect of the color choices you have
selected on a sample picture and graphic.

K-Preserve

On CMYK printers, black is generally made by mixing all four toner colors.
K-Preserve lets you maintain the K or black channel for graphics in a CMYK
file, so that blacks are printed with black toner only rather than a combination
of toners.
