[Color mode] for Océ printers

Introduction

Select the color mode value that you want to use for your document. For the Canon imagePROGRAF printers this setting is not available but the [Print target] setting is used, for more information see Print target for Canon imagePROGRAF printers.

Color mode values

Define the color mode of the document. Choose whether the document is printed in [Color] or in [Grayscale]. Then, to fine-tune the rendering of the colors on the printed job, you can also define the [Color feel].

Color feel values

With the [Color feel] setting you can fine-tune the look and feel of the printed colors, as it defines the color space conversion method.

Description

[None, managed by application]

The color management is completely done by the application that created the document.

[Graphics colors]

Print with photo-realistic colors. Advised for photos or graphic art presentations.

When you select [Graphics colors] you can also adjust additional settings:

[Advanced color options]

  • [RGB input color profile]

  • [CMYK input color profile] (only for TIFF and JPEG files or for PostScript and PDF files)

  • [Rendering intent]

  • [Grayscale input color profile] (only for Océ ColorWave 810/900/910/9000 and Océ ColorWave 500/700/3500/3700)

NOTE
  • The availability of the print settings depends on the format of the file.

  • For a file, the default value of each color setting is the default value defined on the printer for this type of file.

[CAD colors]

Print with bright, saturated colors. Advised for vector drawings (like HP-GL). Preferred for CAD drawings created with applications like AutoCAD or ArcView.

When you use this mode:

  • All primary and secondary colors are clean, because they are printed with pure inks. This is clearly visible when you look at the yellow color that is printed with yellow ink only.

  • An increase in coverage results in (almost) the same increase in ink.

  • The blue color is not purplish but blue.

  • Photos printed in this mode will look dull and grayish.

[Printer's color feel]
