Using color matching tools with PostScript applications
With PostScript applications, you can work with colors created with any of the color models 
supported by the application. All PostScript applications support CMYK. Some also support 
RGB and other color models based on monitor display values. PostScript applications also 
allow you to choose named colors using one or more color libraries, such as PANTONE (see 
page 26
).
Using swatch color matching tools
Your Color Server user software includes several color reference pages (see 
page 12
). By 
choosing colors from these reference pages, you ensure that you print the same color from 
your device. For best results, calibrate the Color Server before printing the reference pages.

We highly recommend that you use swatch color matching to ensure predictable color 
printing results with the Color Server or match your Color Server output to colors produced 
by other printers.

Swatch color matching does not match monitor colors to printed colors. For this, you 
must use a color management system and calibrate your monitor.
Using the CMYK Color Reference
Use the CMYK Color Reference included with your Color Server user software to see how 
various cyan, magenta, yellow, and black combinations look when printed on your printer.
To print the CMYK Color Reference, download the file to the Color Server. The printed 
pages display groups of color patches in graduated combinations of yellow, magenta, and 
cyan, and smaller patches that include 25%, 50%, and 75% black. Refer to these pages to 
pick colors and specify process color values in your application. For the location of the file on 
the User Software CD, see 
Printing from Windows
 or
