Latest features

Spot Color Matching

The FreeFlow enablement supports Spot Color Matching. With the Spot Color Matching
print option, you can determine how spot colors are printed at the EX8002:

• Spot Color Matching On uses color tables built into the EX8002 to simulate the spot

color with the closest equivalent available using the CMYK toners of the digital press
connected to the EX8002. If your EX8002 supports the Spot-On application in
ColorWise Pro Tools, you can customize the spot color definitions used by ColorWise.

• Spot Color Matching Off instructs the EX8002 to simulate the spot color using CMYK

equivalents defined by the spot color manufacturer. These are the same CMYK values used
by applications that include spot color libraries. This CMYK combination is then printed
with the CMYK Simulation setting you choose, such as SWOP or DIC.

Contrast, Saturation, and Color Cast

The FreeFlow enablement supports Contrast, Saturation, and Color Cast.

For these features to work, you must install the Fiery patch 1-12S4R5, which can be

downloaded to the EX8002 from System Updates or WebTools.

To view how Saturation, Contrast, and Color Cast map on the EX8002, perform the
following steps:

1 Submit a color job to the EX8002 Hold queue.

2 In Command WorkStation, select the job and right-click it.

3 Select Process and Hold.

4 After the job is RIPped and is highlighted in dark gold color, right-click it.

5 Select Launch EFI Image Viewer.

6 To view Saturation, select the Color Wheel tab, and then select Saturation from the pull-down

menu.

7 To view Contrast and Color Cast, select the Curves tab and note how the curves have changed.

The color curves in Image Viewer reflect the adjustments that were made in FreeFlow.

Image Viewer allows color adjustment in a job in Color Wheel or Curves mode. In the
FreeFlow IPP implementation, EX8002 uses the Curves mode to adjust colors for the
Saturation, Contrast, and Color Cast.
