Adjusting Color on the Computer
This section explains how to adjust color when printing. You can adjust the color using a printer driver
to print out more satisfactory documents.
Color Matching means managing and adjusting documents color to keep it consistent between input
and output devices.
There are two color matching functions: [Ofce Color] and [Graphic Pro] ([Color (User Settings)]
if you use a XPS driver). If you use Mac OS X, you can also use [ColorSync] function to do color
matching.
Color Matching (Automatic)
If you use business documents mainly,
Automatic is suitable. Color matching is applied
when RGB color space print data is converted to
CMYK color space for the printer.

Pro function.
