What is a media profile?
Definition
A media profile is also called an Océ Media Profile (OMP file). The media profile contains
a number of preset values that give the best print result per media type for your system.
By default the system already has a number of media profiles available after installation,
but due to changes in the production methods for media, the profiles can also change
over time. When a new version is available you can retrieve the new profile from the
corporate web site (http://mediaguide.oce.com).
When a new media type becomes available that you want your Océ ColorWave 600 to
support, you can install the corresponding Media Profile.
Attributes
For each media type the media profile optimizes a number of settings.
• Mixing of colors (system setting, cannot be modified).
• Settings for optimal paper handling and runability.
Example
When you download a media profile from the corporate web site (http://medi-
aguide.oce.com) the file name can consist of the following information.
<printername>_<IDnumber>_<ColorInfo>_<Mediumname>_<RIP>_<version>.omp ,
for example ColorWave600_665_00_LFM090_PMC10_1012.omp
IDnumber = 665 (for the Océ ColorWave 600)
ColorInfo = 00 (possibility to use more than one media profile per media type)
RIP = PMC10 (Power M Controller version 1.0)
