Printing PANTONE Colors
If a Phaser 380 printerÕs printer-speciÞc PANTONE Colors are not printing
as expected, make sure you are printing with Enhanced (600 x 300) mode
with color corrections set to None. Refer to ÒPrinting the PANTONE Color
ChartÓ in the on-line manual on the printerÕs CD-ROM for more

Color simulation, including:
■
