A media profile is also called an Océ Media Profile (OMP file). The media profile contains a number of preset values that give the best print result per media type for your system. By default the system already has a number of media profiles available after installation, but due to changes in the production methods for media, the profiles can change over time. Contact your local representative where you can download new profiles.
When a new media type becomes available that you want your Océ ColorWave 3700 to support, you can install the corresponding Océ Media Profile.
You can also create a custom media type, resulting in a custom media profile after calibration of the new media type.
For each media type the media profile optimises a number of settings.
Mixing of colours (system setting, cannot be modified).
Settings for optimal paper handling and runability.
