6-18 Color Management
Color Management Color management is the process of ensuring the accuracy of the
colors in an image using a profile of the media and ink that will
be used to print the image.
Two color management workflows are supported by the Color-
Span RIP:
◆ ColorSpan — uses a ColorSpan format color profile to cor-
rect the image on the RIP, and color calibration data to lin-
earize the printed output.
◆ ICC — uses an ICC format color profile to correct the image
on the client workstation, and color calibration data to lin-
earize the printed output. In this case, no color correction is
performed on the RIP.
For details on using the ColorMark+ software to create color
profiles for the ColorSpan or ICC workflow, refer to the Color-
Mark+ User Guide, part number 0706133.

The Input Color Space option you select determines how image
colors are converted from one device to another, which estab-
lishes the method of color correction that will be performed by
the print server.
Matching the output color space, as defined in application pro-
grams such as Adobe Photoshop, with its corresponding conver-
sion method will result in more accurate color reproduction and
an expanded color gamut. (See “Selecting an Output Color
Space” on page 7-4 for instructions.) If you receive files from
customers, ask what color space they were created in so you can
print them in the same space.
