When the image data has a specified input ICC profile, you can print by using the color space (Adobe RGB or sRGB) of the data effectively.
The printer driver setting procedure varies depending on the application software used to print.
When you print the editing and touch-up results of Adobe Photoshop, Canon Digital Photo Professional, or any application software that allows you to specify input and printing ICC profiles, you print by effectively using the color space of the input ICC profile specified in the image data.
To use this printing method, use your application software to select color management items and specify an input ICC profile and a printing ICC profile in the image data.
Even if you print using a printing ICC profile that you created yourself from your application software, be sure to select color management items from your application software.
For instructions, refer to the manual of the application software you are using.
Open the printer driver setup window
Select the manual color adjustment
On the Main tab, select Manual for Color/Intensity, and click Set....
The Manual Color Adjustment dialog box opens.
Select color correction
Click Matching tab, and select None for Color Correction.
Set the other items
If necessary, click Color Adjustment tab, and adjust the color balance (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) and adjust Brightness, Intensity, and Contrast settings, and then click OK.
Complete the setup
Click OK on the Main tab.
When you execute print, the machine uses the color space of the image data.
Print from an application software that cannot identify input ICC profiles or does allow you to specify one by using the color space of the input ICC profile (sRGB) found in the data. When printing Adobe RGB data, you can print the data with the Adobe RGB color space even if the application software does not support Adobe RGB.
Open the printer driver setup window
Select the manual color adjustment
On the Main tab, select Manual for Color/Intensity, and click Set....
The Manual Color Adjustment dialog box opens.
Select color correction
Click Matching tab, and select ICM (ICC Profile Matching) for Color Correction.
Select the input profile
Select an Input Profile that matches the color space of the image data.
For sRGB data or data without an input ICC profile:
Select Standard.
For Adobe RGB data:
Select Adobe RGB (1998).
Important
When the application software specifies an input profile, the input profile setting of the printer driver becomes invalid.
When no input ICC profiles are installed on your computer, Adobe RGB (1998) will not be displayed.
Set the other items
If necessary, click Color Adjustment tab, and adjust the color balance (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) and adjust Brightness, Intensity, and Contrast settings, and then click OK.
Complete the setup
Click OK on the Main tab.
When you execute print, the machine uses the color space of the image data.
