Managing Profiles - Canon IRC2100 Manual

4-6 ColorWise Pro Tools
On Windows computers, the profiles must have an extension of .icc or
N :
OTE
.icm to be listed. On Mac OS computers, the profiles must have a file type of
profile.
All ICC profiles in the selected directory on your computer are displayed in
the list in the main Profile Manager window. However, because a profile is
listed does not necessarily mean it can be downloaded to the
iR C2100/2100S.
Simulation profiles should be only profiles of devices for which you want the
iR C2100/2100S to match in terms of color output characteristics. Output
profiles should be only profiles of the device to which your iR C2100/2100S
is connected. Although CMYK printer profiles can be downloaded as
Simulation or Output, consider how they will be used. If you want the
iR C2100/2100S prints to look like another printer, download that profile as
a Simulation. If you have a custom profile of the copier/printer your
iR C2100/2100S is connected to, download that profile as an Output profile.
4. Click the arrow to download the profile and click OK when the download is
complete.
The new profile now appears on the list of profiles on the right side of the
Profile Manager main window.
For Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Mac OS computers, this profile
must be associated with one of the predefined names (Source-1 through 10
for RGB Source, Simulation-1 through 10 for Simulation, or Output-1
through 10 for Output) or set as the default before it can be used. For
Windows 95/98, all profiles can appear in the printer driver by their profile
descriptions. See "Defining profiles" on page 4-8.
When an output profile is downloaded, it inherits the calibration
N :
OTE
target of the current default output profile.
Managing profiles
With Profile Manager, you can back up profiles and delete profiles. You
should always back up profiles before updating iR C2100/2100S software to
ensure that no custom profiles are lost.
You can back up and delete only those profiles that appear in the main
N :
OTE
Profile manager window without the lock icon next to them. Locked profiles
cannot be deleted, but most can be backed up.
