Printing simulations
You can use the ColorPASS to proof offset press jobs or to simulate the output of other
print devices by specifying settings for two print options: CMYK Simulation Profile
and CMYK Simulation Method. These options affect CMYK data only.
The ColorPASS provides CMYK Simulation targets for the major international press
standards: SWOP, DIC, and Euroscale. You can also create, save, and import custom
simulation profiles using ColorWise Pro Tools (see the Color Guide).
• When printing simulations on the ColorPASS, choose the CMYK Simulation
Profile setting corresponding to the press standard for which the CMYK data was
prepared, or choose a custom simulation profile.
• To simulate the color of a copy made from the copier glass, choose the Match Copy
setting. This setting bypasses ColorPASS calibration.
Use the CMYK Simulation Method print option to specify the quality of simulation
desired: Quick or Full. For more information, see the Color Guide.
Printing duplex pages
You can use the ColorPASS to print double-sided (duplex) pages.
TO PRINT DUPLEX PAGES:
1. When specifying print options, set Duplex to the desired setting.
Top-Top
prints both sides using the same top edge; Top-Bottom prints the back side
upside-down. The
Manual setting produces different results depending on how you
place the pages in the SB (Stack Bypass) tray. See “Duplex” on page A-16 for more
information.
2. Set other options and click OK.
3. Click Print.
