Expert Color Control
Expert Color Control enables you to fine-tune the colors on your
printed document.
NOTE: The Expert Color Control results will be much different between
PostScript and PCL 5C due to the differences in the printer description
languages.
COLOR ADJUSTMENT
In Color Adjustment, there are two slider bars you can use to
make adjustments for lightness and saturation. As you slide each
bar, the numerical value for that bar is indicated in the box to the
right of the bar.
Lightness
Lightness relates to the brightness of the color produced. A
higher setting lightens the colors on the document overall,
giving it a faded look, while a lower setting darkens the colors
overall.
Saturation
Saturation affects the intensity of color or the amount of
chromatic color in proportion to its lightness. For example,
this is the aspect that distinguishes a pale red from a bright
red. A lower setting provides less color saturation (is less
colorful), while a higher setting provides a higher color
saturation (is more colorful) on your document overall.
