DocuSP color management
2-2 Color Management Guide
Color workflows
A color image follows a path as it is converted from an input color
profile to the output CMYK of the print engine. Factors that
determine the path are:
• the characteristics and type of the input profile
• conversions needed for the output profile of the print engine
• enhancements made by you, the user
Color path charts
Jobs take one of five paths through the DocuSP controller.
Whenever possible, you should use the Xerox Enhanced Path
which provides the highest quality color for incoming SWOP™
CMYK color and faster RIP speed.
The color path chart (see Figure 2-1. Simplified DocuSP Color
Workflow) displays the paths different documents take as they
move through the DocuSP color management system and are
processed for print.
The paths are:
• ICC Standard Path
• Xerox Enhanced Path
• CMYK Native Path
• Fast Reprint Path
• PANTONE® Path
