•
Select Absolute Colorimetric when exact colors are required and visible borders are not distracting. There is
no white point transformation.
•
Select Relative Colorimetric when color matching is important, but you also want to print white as paper
white. The white point transformation eliminates borders between blank spaces and white objects.
Note: If you experience tone reproduction problems, set this option to Photographic.

Print gray using black only
The Print gray using black only print option provides settings to print a grayscale job using black instead of
process black.
This option renders the selected object types (Text/Graphics or Text/Graphics/Images) in grayscale using K-only
black. (Graphics refer to vector graphics; Images refer to raster images.)
This option is designed to use black efficiently, by using only black (rather than four-color process black). (See
Color Printing).
Spot color matching
Clear the Spot color matching check box to print specified PANTONE colors in your job using the alternate
color space and values for the spot color specified in the source application.
Select to activate the PANTONE Lookup Table. The Fiery ES uses a built-in table to generate the closest CMYK
matches of spot colors. (See Color Printing.)
Use spot group
The Use spot group print option uses the default spot color group for the print job.

Auto trapping
Trapping is a technique to print some objects slightly larger or smaller than specified in an application, in order
to prevent white edges around the objects.
These white edges, or “halos,” can be caused by factors such as misregistration, the physical properties of the
inks, and the stiffness of the media. The Auto trapping feature provides you with advanced trapping settings and
gives you full control over their values.
Select this option if the job should automatically reduce white gaps for text and graphics.
Turning on this option may result in graphics or text surrounded with borders.

This option is available as part of Fiery Productivity Package. For more information, see Fiery Productivity
Package.
