PANTONE Colors

For the latest information on color libraries, visit the Tektronix web site at:

PANTONE Color files for your printer include printer-specific color library files for some 
specific applications and a file to print the PANTONE Color sampler chart.

Methods of printing PANTONE Colors

PANTONE

 

Colors from color selection books

In some applications, you can select colors from PANTONE Color selection books.  These 
colors can be proofed on your Phaser printer before final output on a printing press. For 
this method, the printer-specific PANTONE Color files are not required.

From an application, select and apply PANTONE Colors; use individual color values 
from a PANTONE Colors selection book.

Print your document; from a supported driver, select the Commercial Press color 
correction.  (Proof colors may not be completely accurate, but PANTONE Colors will 
be printed correctly on a printing press.)  

When you are satisfied with the proof, the file can be separated for printing press 
plates without adjustment to the file.

Printer-specific PANTONE

 

Colors

Your printer can produce process color simulations of PANTONE Spot Colors.  

Print a copy of the PANTONE Color chart. Refer to Printing the PANTONE Color 
Chart on page 12. 

Within an application, define the desired color in your document by using the 
individual CMYK values which appear on the sampler chart.   

Print your document. For best results, use the same printer settings for color 
correction and print quality, and the same type of paper that you used to print the 
PANTONE Color chart.

For colors to be printed as a process color (no spot colors), follow these steps:

Open the application.

Before separating the file for printing press plates, replace the printer’s PANTONE 
process Colors with standard PANTONE Colors.
