C5100: Color Printing  • 59

There is no correct way to achieve a good match between the 
document displayed on your monitor, and its printed equivalent. 
There are many factors involved in achieving accurate and 
reproducible color.

The following guidelines may help in achieving good color output 
from your printer. There are several suggested methods, depending 
on the type of document you are printing.

The guidelines for choosing a color matching method makes 
distinctions between Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Cyan, Magenta, 
Yellow, Black (CMYK).

Generally, most documents you print will be in RGB format. This is 
the most common, and if you do not know your document’s color 
mode, assume that it is RGB.

Typically CMYK documents are only supported in professional 
Desktop Publishing and Graphics applications.

The driver and Color Swatch Utility supplied with your printer support 
only RBG. If you wish to use CMYK, you might be able to use the 
software application’s Soft Proofing feature (see “RGB or CMYK” on 
page 60).
