5-6 Working with Color in Applications
Swatch color matching
ColorPASS user software includes several color reference pages (see page 5-2). By
choosing colors from these reference pages, you can be sure of obtaining the same color
from your copier. For best results, calibrate the ColorPASS before printing the
reference pages.
NOTE: 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
The CMYK Color Reference included with your ColorPASS user software lets you see
how various cyan, magenta, yellow, and black combinations look when printed on
your copier.
To print the CMYK Color Reference, download the file to the ColorPASS. 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 Getting Started.
