Toshiba GA-1121 User Manual

•

—The GA-1121 uses a built-in table or, with the Spot-On (available as Option), 

the Spot-On color dictionaries (see 

) to generate the best matches of the 

PANTONE colors that your copier/printer can produce. The PANTONE number 
is printed below each swatch.

•

—The GA-1121 prints swatches using the CMYK values recommended by 

Pantone, Inc. (and used by applications that provide PANTONE color libraries). 
The CMYK values used to generate the color, as well as the PANTONE number of 
the color, are printed below each swatch. These CMYK values are printed through 
the selected CMYK Simulation and Output Profile settings.

This feature is not available with the PCL driver.

The RGB 

 setting allows you to define the characteristics of the RGB 

data in your document so the appropriate color conversion can occur on the GA-1121. 
Commonly used monitor color spaces are available from the printer driver and from 
the ColorWise Pro Tools Profile Manager. For special needs, use ColorWise Pro Tools 
to download custom monitor or scanner profiles.

When you specify a setting other than None for the RGB Source Profile, the GA-1121 
overrides 

 definitions or profiles that other color management 

systems may have specified. For example, if you specified a ColorSync System Profile 
on your Mac OS computer, the RGB Source Profile setting overrides it. In cases where 
you do not want this setting to override another specified source color space, choose 
the None setting.

When you specify a setting other than None for the RGB Source Profile—since the 
color space definitions are overridden—the output from the GA-1121 is consistent 
across platforms. The GA-1121 RGB Source Profile options are:

•

 specifies an EFI-defined color space recommended for users who have no 

detailed information about their RGB data.

•

 specifies the industry standard definition for a generic Windows 

computer monitor.

•

 specifies the definition of all standard Mac OS computer monitors.
