Problem

PANTONE color chart.
Solution
To match the document colors to the color chart:
■
If the application software allows the user to select a printer PPD file for printing a
document, make sure the Phaser 8560MFP/8860MFP printer PPD is selected. The
PANTONE colors in the printer are calibrated for the printer’s default halftone; overriding
the printer’s default halftone will change the printer’s color reproduction. For more
information about software settings for your applications, consult your application’s user
manual.

Turning off other color matching software, such as ColorSync or ICM color matching,
when trying to match PANTONE Colors is recommended. Using other color matching
software while matching PANTONE Colors can cause unpredictable color output. If you
choose to use a Color Management software, set the printer’s color correction to none, and
do not use the printer specific charts.

To match PANTONE spot colors, in the printer driver select Properties, click the Color
Options tab, select Automatic color correction, select Custom from the drop-down list,
and then select the Spot Colors tab. For example, print documents using the None color
correction if the PANTONE Color chart was printed using None (the recommended
setting). Also verify that the color’s CMYK values match the CMYK values on the chart.

The printed PANTONE charts can fade over time or when exposed to sunlight. Check the
color charts you printed against the PANTONE Color swatch book available from
PANTONE, Inc. You may need to re-print the chart, especially if it has been exposed to
light for some time. Storing the charts in a dark place helps preserve the color.

Print a test page from your control panel to check the colors. If your printer has media that
is out of specification, or other supplies that are at the end of useful life, color adjustments
may not be able to get the printer to match PANTONE Colors.
