4 Printing: Beyond the Basics
4-12 Phaser 380 Color Printer
PANTONE Colors from swatch books
In some applications, you can select PANTONE Colors from a swatch book.
These colors can be proofed on your Phaser 380 printer before Þnal printing
on a printing press. Use the following instructions when printing proofs for
these types of print jobs:
■
Printing proofs for Þnal output on a 4-color printing press (no spot
colors).
■
Printing proofs with spot colors and process colors for Þnal output
on a 5+ color printing press.
1. Select PANTONE Colors within an application using the
individual color values from a PANTONE Colors swatch book.
2. Print your Þle to a Phaser 380 printer with the Commercial Press
color correction. (The proof colors may not be completely
accurate, but the PANTONE Colors will be printed correctly on a
printing press.)
3. When you are satisÞed with the proof, the Þle can be separated for
plates without adjustment to the Юle.
