Color management

Color management defines the range of colors that can be printed. The printer software
translates the colors of the photo from the current color settings to the color management
option that is selected.
Follow these steps to select a color management option:
1.

Open the

Printer Properties

dialog box.

2.

Click the

Color

tab.

3.

Click one of the following options in the

Color management

drop-down list:

ColorSmart/sRGB

: ColorSmart/sRGB is an appropriate option for most print

jobs. It is used for most Web-based documents and current imaging devices.

AdobeRGB

: When using AdobeRGB to print from a professional software

program, turn off the color management in the program and allow the printer
software to manage the color space. Use the AdobeRGB setting for photos that
were originally created in the AdobeRGB color space.

Managed by application

: Use this option to allow the program from which you

are printing to manage the color of the photo.
