MagicMatch

 

MagicMatch

MagicMatch is driven via the Kodak KCMS engine. Users can choose a printer profile to achieve color matching. At this point COLOR 2000 has composed a group of printer profiles, which provide a means of transferring data from source to destination. Select a Printer Profile that best matches the printer you are using from the pull-down menu.

Note: Some controls such as highlight and shadow, etc. are removed or disabled.

By using the ICC(International Color Consortium) Compatible Profile, COLOR 2000 allows you to add new printer profile into the existing profile group. This engine is compatible with Windows system and ColorSync system in Macintosh. Please refer to the supplied manual of your printer for installing printer profile into your computer system. COLOR 2000 will update the printer profile automatically after the newly profile is installed. Later, you can choose that printer profile from the printer profile pull-down list on COLOR 2000 as the image output device.

 

 
Printer Profile Pull Down List

This selection determines which output device the image will be sent to after color matching. That means it allows you to choose the output destination of your scanned images.

Different output devices require different color calibration profiles. If you decide and want to send the scanned image to an output device (printer, monitor...), you must choose the corresponding profile of that device. Later, after scanned by initiating color matching, you will have an image similar to the original image.

Output Device Profile falls into two broad categories: monitors and printers. Select No Printer if you want to display the scanned image on your computer screen. Otherwise, choose a printer profile from the pull-down list which best matches your printer. Possible modes for image are as follows:

No Printer: use the monitor instead of printer profile

Profiles: list the available profiles of printer

Be aware that this menu is only active when the MagicMatch operation mode is selected.
