Note

  • When printing by specifying fluorescent colors, the RGB values set by the application software must be retained when being input to the printer driver. If color management is performed during printing by the application software, the RGB values are not retained, and therefore may not produce the desired print results. If this happens, configure the settings on the application software as follows.
    For detailed instructions on settings, see the user's guide of the application software you are using.
    • Disable color management and color adjustment functions during printing.
    • Configure settings so that color management during printing is performed by the printer.
    • For color management during printing, specify the same profile as the document profile.
  • Under the following conditions, printing may not produce the desired results.
    • Text or shapes that have been shaded, rotated, or anti-aliased
    • Data with specified RGB values that were saved in GIF format
  • Sections that are close to the specified RGB values will also be printed with bright colors.
  • If you want to print gradations using fluorescent ink, configure Poster (Fluorescent) in Print Target under Easy Settings.
