Note
Each object in QuarkXpress has its own color management. The solid
colors use the color profile and rendering intent selected in the default source
profiles for Solid Colors (RGB, CMYK, or Hexachrome) of the Color
Management Preferences dialog box. The imported objects have their own
assigned profile and rendering intent. QuarkXPress will use the rendering
intent assigned to the image for both conversions, from the image color space
to the simulation color space, and from the simulation color space to the printer
color space.
Driver settings
The PostScript driver is the best choice for page-layout applications because it can
color–manage CMYK data, RGB data, or both simultaneously.
In the Image Quality panel, set Print Quality to Best.
In the Color Options panel, select Application Managed Colors and check the
Automatic PANTONE Calibration box. When the application performs color
conversion to the printer's color space, the printer should accept these colors without
changing them. Make sure you have selected the right media profile in Composite
Output in the Preferences dialog box.
Printer settings
Ensure that the Paper Type setting on the front panel corresponds to the paper you
intend to use.
