Instruction Manual

Note: You can override the CMOCA settings and make additional
adjustments to the color settings in the IPDS printer setting or in the AFP tab
of the virtual printer.
Profiles
Profiles are used to reproduce color from one device’s color space
to another device's color space in a consistent manner. They
provide the necessary information to convert color data between
device‑dependent color spaces and device‑independent color
spaces. You use profiles to color-manage your system.
A source profile defines the RGB or CMYK color space of the
object’s source, providing information such as the white point,
gamma, and type of phosphors used. A destination profile defines
the gamut of an output device, such as a printer. The IC-312 print
controller uses a device-independent color space to translate
between the source color space and the color space of the output
device.
Creating a destination profile using an external device
Create a destination profile with the i1, iSis, or i1iO
spectrophotometer using the Profiling tool.
