Selecting options when printing
There are few differences among office applications with regard to Color Server printing. To 
specify print options and color management settings, follow the instructions in 
Color Printing
To specify these options, you must use a PostScript Level 2 (or later) printer driver, such as an 
Adobe PostScript Printer Driver.
Because office applications send RGB data to the Color Server, your choice of RGB Source 
and Rendering Style settings are important. Specify the appropriate CRD for the desired color 
effect (see 
Color Printing
).
Output profiles
All color data in the job is affected by the output profile on the Color Server. This profile may 
be the one designed for your device and shipped with the Color Server, or it may be a custom 
profile created at your site (see
 Color Printing
). If necessary, print the Test Page to see which 
profile is the active default on the Color Server. 
Ensuring color accuracy when you save a file
Take the following steps to ensure color accuracy:
• When saving EPS files, do not include PostScript Color Management information. This 
minimizes the risk of conflicting data and multiple color conversions. PostScript Color 
Management causes your CMYK and RGB colors to be interpreted by the Color Server as 
though they were supplied in the Lab color space and, as a result, processed by CRDs, 
rather than your simulation settings.
• Include ICC color information in files. ColorWise does not conflict with this information, 
and such data is useful for identifying the specific color space used by your files.
• Do not include halftone and transfer functions.
• Turn off color management in the printer driver. 
On Windows computers, if the printer driver offers Image Color Matching options, select 
Printer Image Color Matching.
On Mac OS computers, set the printer driver to include no color management commands 
at print time (see 
Color Printing
).
