COLORWISE PRINT OPTIONS 26
RGB Source or Device Link
The RGB Source or Device Link setting allows you to define the characteristics of the RGB
data in your document so that the appropriate color conversion occurs on the EX700i.
Commonly used monitor color spaces are available from the printer driver and the EX700i.
For others, use Command WorkStation to download custom monitor or scanner profiles.
When you specify a setting for the RGB Source, the EX700i overrides source color space
definitions or profiles that other color management systems may have specified. Because the
color space definitions are overridden, the output from the EX700i is consistent across
platforms.
If your document contains an embedded RGB profile that you want to use, select the Use
Embedded Profile If Present (RGB) option (see “Use Embedded Profile If Present (RGB and
CMYK)” on page 29). In this case, the RGB Source setting is ignored and the embedded
profile is used instead.
The EX700i RGB Source options are as follows:
•
EFIRGB specifies an EFI-defined color space recommended for users who have no detailed
information about their RGB data.
•
sRGB (PC) specifies the definition of a Windows computer monitor profile used as the
default.
•
Apple Standard specifies the definition of a Mac OS computer monitor profile used as the
default.
•
Adobe RGB (1998) is an Adobe-defined color space, used in prepress as the default
working space in Photoshop 5.
•
eciRGB is the European Color Initiative (ECI) recommended space for use as an RGB
working color space and color data exchange format for ad agencies, publishers,
reproduction and printing houses.
•
Fiery RGB is an EFI-defined color space recommended for users of office applications. This
color space is similar to EFIRGB but is larger and can provide a more desirable blue
output.
With the Use Embedded Profile When Present (RGB) option enabled, PostScript RGB
data that contains a source color space definition is converted using the RGB/Lab
Rendering Intent option (see “RGB/Lab Rendering Intent” on page 25). Non-PostScript
RGB data and PostScript RGB data that does not contain a source color space definition
are converted using the EFIRGB source profile and Presentation rendering intent.
