Toshiba GA-1121 User Manual

• With Black Overprint Off, the border of the text or text/graphics is on an edge that 

has cyan and magenta toners on one side (outside the text) and black toner on the 
other side (inside the text). This transition may cause visible artifacts because of the 
practical limitations of the copier/printer.

This feature is not available with the PCL driver.

The Spot Color Matching option provides automatic matching of spot colors with 
their best CMYK equivalents.

•

—The GA-1121 uses a built-in table to generate the closest CMYK matches of 

spot colors your copier/printer can produce. (New tables are generated when you 
add new output profiles.) With the Spot-On (available as Option), the GA-1121 
uses the CMYK matches determined through Spot-On (see 

).

•

—The GA-1121 uses CMYK equivalents defined by the spot color manufacturer, 

such as PANTONE. These are the same CMYK equivalents used by applications 
that include spot color libraries.

For jobs that include spot colors, set Spot Color Matching to On unless you are 
printing press simulations. In that case, set Spot Color Matching to Off and choose the 
appropriate CMYK Simulation setting (see 

).

For PDF jobs that include spot colors and where the spot colors are not included in the 
built-in table, setting Spot Color Matching to On retains the spot color originally 
specified. The GA-1121 references the built-in table to generate the closest CMYK 
matches of the original spot color.

Use the Spot Color Matching option only when printing composites, not when 

printing separations. 

The PANTONE Coated Color Reference prints differently depending on the Spot 
Color Matching setting.
