Print Quality

Select the appropriate print quality option for your image. Keep

which one is best for your particular CD label.

Color Matching

Click on the Color Matching box and choose the color matching
option thatÕs right for you. Select None if you are more
interested in print speed rather than print color, if you have
already color corrected your image for printing, or if you are

specific color matching software.

Select FargoColor to enable color matching profiles written

to be printed. This option enables ColorSync to color correct
your image according to preset printer profiles and the selected
system profiles. A recommended default system profile is

it is recommended that only this default system profile be used.
To select this profile, select Control Panel from the Apple
menu, and double-click on ColorSync System Profile. Then,
