Rendering Intent
This submenu allows you to
choose from several color
settings. Depending on the
type of printing you do, this
setting should be set to an
appropriate value
Photographic Photographic: This setting will
print the most realistic
photographic images.
Presentation: This setting is
best suited when printing
Business Graphics,
Presentations, etc. This setting
places emphasis on bold,
saturated colors.
Logo Art: When absolute color
fidelity is important, as when
corporate logos and the like are
being printed, this setting will
yield the greatest color fidelity.
Colors that not possible to
accurately produce will be
remapped to the closest possible
color.
Proofing: This setting is very
similar to the Logo Art setting,
but the colors will be shifted by
the color of the media on which
you are printing.
1. Press NEXT or

through the available
color rendering settings.
