Rendering Intent Absolute
For jobs in which the most important consideration is matching colors exactly to the
computer’s screen colors . This absolute rendering reproduces all colors exactly:
the white in an image prints exactly as it appears on the computer screen; in other
words, if the “white” appears to contain a color (such as blue or gray), that color is
printed rather than the white of the paper.
Many screen colors cannot be printed accurately on the Phaser 450 or other color
printers. The printer uses the closest printer colors available for screen colors.
Consequently, “flat” areas appear on prints where slightly different colors appear on
the screen.
