Sharp AR-C200P: Macintosh OS 8.6-9.2.2 Operation • 86
• Monitor (9300k)
Optimized for printing photographs when using a monitor with a 
color temperature of 6500K.
• Digital Camera
Optimized for printing photographs taken with a digital camera. 
This tends to produce prints with lighter and brighter colors. For 
some photographs, other settings may be better depending on 
the subjects and the conditions under which they were taken. 
Vivid or Digital Camera settings produce brightest colors.
• sRGB
Optimized for matching specific colors, such as a company logo 
color. This option attempts to simulate RGB color. The colors 
within the printer's color gamut are printed without any 
modification, and only colors that fall outside the printable 
colors are modified. 
Rendering
When a document is printed, a conversion takes place from the 
document's color space to the printer color space. The rendering 
intents are essentially a set of rules that determine how this color 
conversion takes place. 
Select the option desired:
• Auto
The best default select as this selects the optimal settings for a 
general office environment.
• Perceptual
Best choice for printing photographs. Compresses the source 
gamut into the printer's gamut whilst maintaining the overall 
appearance of an image. This may change the overall 
appearance of an image as all the colors are shifted together.
