4. Select a method from the Color Handling drop-down list.
The options differ, depending on whether you chose Document or Proof
in Step 3.
If you chose Document in the Print area, here are your options:
• Printer Manages Colors: Sends the document unchanged to the
printer, tagged with its color profile. The printer driver then picks an
appropriate color profile and converts your document’s colors to the
final printout. Just make sure you enable color management in your
printer dialog box.
• Photoshop Manages Colors: Tells Photoshop to handle the color
conversion, using the settings you select from the Printer Profile and
Rendering Intent pop-up menus. Photoshop also checks whether
you selected the Black Point Compensation option with this setting.
If you did, make sure you disable any color management in your
printer dialog box.
• Separations: Select this option if you want to print color separations
(see the following section). Note that your image must be in CMYK
mode.
• No Color Management: If you select this option, no conversion
occurs.
