Description
Color-matching optimized for images, graph-
ics, or text.
Color-matching optimized for printing typical
photos attractively. Smooth gradation is a
feature. This is also an easy-to-use mode
when performing color adjustment using ap-
plication software.
Color-matching optimized for printing image
data with accurate colors in input color space.
This is the easiest-to-use mode when you
want to adjust the color and print. However,
gradation may be lost for colors of wider
range than the color reproduction range of
the printer. Generally, this is also called rela-
tive colorimetric.
The processing method of color-matching is
identical to Colorimetric. Use this when you
want to further reproduce the target paper
material color of the image data. Generally,
this also is called absolute colorimetric.
Color-matching optimized for printing posters,
etc., vividly.
