2-8 Simple and Advanced Workflows

Short-run printing examples

The following examples illustrate short-run printing on the iR C2100/
2100S.
Photoshop RGB workflow
This short-run workflow of printing an RGB image from Photoshop is one of
the simplest iR C2100/2100S color workflows. In it, RGB data is sent from
the application, through the printer driver, to the iR C2100/2100S, and the
RGB-to-CMYK conversion takes place on the iR C2100/2100S using a
CRD rather than in the application. Use the settings illustrated in this
workflow for printing photographs and artwork.
This document could be created as follows:
• Create an RGB image in Photoshop.
• Print the file directly to the iR C2100/2100S.
See Chapter 7 for recommended print settings from Photoshop.
• Use ColorWise to convert the RGB image to copier/printer CMYK, or the
full gamut of copier/printer.
The ColorWise settings used in this example are:
• RGB Source Profile set to EFIRGB or another RGB source definition
• Rendering Style set to Photographic
• RGB Separation set to Output
