Re: CMYK simulation profile?



Trick question as you don't say what color spaces are the images being
printed are in. Obviously, if the images are in CMYK then, as Marco's
suggested, selecting Simulation = None gets you the 'native' colors of the
toners on whathever substrate you use in the printer. You may like what you
see but is it 'best'? Hard to say. If the images are in RGB then you better
select some Simulation space otherwise you'll get whathever PostScript color
conversion as executed by the Fiery or Creo RIP. And you may not like what
you see.
