EFI Fiery ES IC-418 - Use Embedded Profile; Where to Specify Color Print Options

Use embedded profile
You can specify whether the Fiery ES uses the source profile (either RGB or CMYK or grayscale) that is embedded in
the print job rather than the source profile specified in the print settings.
RGB
If you turn on Use RGB embedded profile, the Fiery ES ignores the RGB source option and uses the RGB profile
embedded in the print job (if any) as the RGB source profile. If you turn off this option, the Fiery ES uses the profile
specified in the RGB source option.
CMYK
If you turn on Use CMYK embedded profile, the Fiery ES ignores the CMYK source option and uses the CMYK profile
embedded in the print job (if any) as the CMYK source profile. If you turn off this option, the Fiery ES uses the
profile specified in the CMYK source option.
Grayscale
If you turn on Use Gray embedded profile, the Fiery ES honors the embedded grayscale profile information for
objects tagged with a grayscale profile and uses the source grayscale profile for gray objects without a grayscale
profile.
Where to specify color print options
You can set color print options for all jobs by setting the default values on the Fiery ES. You can set the color print
options for a specific job to different values if the default values are not what you want for the job.
You specify default values for color print options in Color Setup in Command WorkStation. You can also set default
values from Fiery ES Setup, as described in Configuration and Setup. The defaults apply to all subsequent print jobs
unless you override them.
Note: A job uses the Fiery ES default settings at the time it is sent to the Fiery ES Hold queue, not at the time the job
is processed for printing.
How you set specific color print options for a particular job depends on how you submit the job to the Fiery ES.
•
When you print a job from an application through the printer driver, specify color print options using the
settings that appear in the printer driver.
The printer driver sends a PostScript file to the Fiery ES that incorporates the settings for the color print options
you selected.
•
When you print a job through Hot Folders or a virtual printer, specify color print options in the Job Properties
settings. These settings override the default settings on the Fiery ES.
•
When a job is in the Hold queue of the Fiery ES, specify color print options through the Job Properties settings in
Command WorkStation. These settings override the default settings on the Fiery ES.
