    							Printing a Color Document in Monochrome
    The procedure for printing a color document in monochrome is as follows:
    You can also set a grayscale printing in  Additional Features on the Quick Setup  tab.
    1.
    Open the printer driver setup window
    2.
    Set grayscale printing
    Check the  Grayscale Printing  check box on the Main tab.
    3.
    Complete the setup
    Click  OK.
    When you execute print, the document is converted to grayscale data. It allows you to print the color
    document in monochrome.
    Important
    
    						
    							Specifying Color CorrectionYou can specify the color correction method suited to the type of document to be printed.
    Normally, the printer driver adjusts the colors by using Canon Digital Photo Color so that data is printed with
    color tints that most people prefer. This method is suitable for printing sRGB data.
    When you want to print by using the color space (sRGB) of the image data effectively, select  ICM (ICC
    Profile Matching ). When you want to use an application software to specify a printing ICC profile, select
    None .
    The procedure for specifying color correction is as follows:
    You can also set color correction on the  Quick Setup tab by choosing  Photo Printing under Commonly
    Used Settings , and then choosing  Color/Intensity Manual Adjustment  under Additional Features .1.
    Open the printer driver setup window
    2.
    Select the manual color adjustment
    On the  Main tab, select  Manual for Color/Intensity , and click Set....
    The Manual Color Adjustment  dialog box opens.
    3.
    Select color correction
    Click  Matching  tab, select  Color Correction  setting that matches your purpose from the following, and
    click  OK.

    							Driver MatchingWith Canon Digital Photo Color, you can print sRGB data with color tints that most people prefer.
    ICM (ICC Profile Matching) Adjusts the colors by using an ICC profile when printing.Specify the input profile or rendering intent to be used.
    None The printer driver does not perform color correction. Select this value when you are specifying an
    individually created printing ICC profile or a printing ICC profile for special Canon paper in an
    application software to print data.

    Complete the setup
    Click  OK on the  Main tab.
    When you execute print, the document data is printed with the specified color correction.
    Important
    
    						
    							Optimal Photo Printing of Image DataWhen people print images taken with digital cameras, they sometimes feel that the printed color tones differfrom those of actual image or those displayed on the monitor.
    To get the print results as close as possible to the desired color tones, you must select a printing method
    that is best suited to the application software used or to your purpose.
    Color Management
    Devices such as digital cameras, scanners, monitors, and printers handle color differently. Color
    management (color matching) is a method that manages device-dependent "colors" as a common color space.
    For Windows, a color management system called "ICM" is built into the operating system. sRGB is one of the common color spaces that is frequently used.
    ICC profiles convert device-dependent "colors" into a common color space. By using an ICC profile and carrying out color management, you can draw out the color space of the image data within the color
    reproduction area that the printer can express.
    Selecting a Printing Method Suited to the Image Data
    The recommended printing method depends on the color space (sRGB) of the image data or the application software to be used.
    There are two typical printing methods.
    Check the color space (sRGB) of the image data and the application software to be used, and then select
    the printing method suited to your purpose.
    Adjusting Colors with the Printer Driver Describes the procedure for printing sRGB data by using the color correction function of the printer
    driver.
    
    						
    							Adjusting Colors with the Printer DriverYou can specify the color correction function of the printer driver to print sRGB data with color tints that mostpeople prefer through the use of Canon Digital Photo Color.
    When printing from an application software that can identify ICC profiles and allows you to specify them, use
    a printing ICC profile in the application software, and select settings for color management.
    The procedure for adjusting colors with the printer driver is as follows:1.
    Open the printer driver setup window
    2.
    Select the manual color adjustment On the  Main tab, select  Manual for Color/Intensity , and click Set....
    The  Manual Color Adjustment  dialog box opens.
    3.
    Select color correction
    Click  Matching  tab, and select  Driver Matching  for Color Correction .
    4.
    Set the other items
    If necessary, click  Color Adjustment  tab, and adjust the color balance ( Cyan, Magenta , Yellow ) and
    adjust  Brightness , Intensity , and Contrast  settings, and then click  OK.
    5.
    Complete the setup
    Click  OK on the  Main tab.
    When you execute print, the printer driver adjusts the colors when printing the data.

    							Printing with ICC ProfilesWhen the image data has a specified input ICC profile, you can print by using the color space (sRGB) of the
    data effectively.
    The printer driver setting procedure varies depending on the application software used to print.
    Specify an ICC Profile from the Application Software and Print the Data
    When you print the editing and touch-up results of Adobe Photoshop, Canon Digital Photo Professional,
    or any application software that allows you to specify input and printing ICC profiles, you print by
    effectively using the color space of the input ICC profile specified in the image data.
    To use this printing method, use your application software to select color management items and specify
    an input ICC profile and a printing ICC profile in the image data.
    Even if you print using a printing ICC profile that you created yourself or one for special Canon paper, be sure to select color management items from your application software. For instructions, refer to the manual of the application software you are using.1.
    Open the printer driver setup window
    2.
    Select the manual color adjustment
    On the  Main tab, select  Manual for Color/Intensity , and click Set....
    The  Manual Color Adjustment  dialog box opens.

    Click  Matching  tab, and select  None for Color Correction .
    4.
    Set the other items
    If necessary, click  Color Adjustment  tab, and adjust the color balance ( Cyan, Magenta , Yellow ) and
    adjust  Brightness , Intensity , and Contrast  settings, and then click  OK.
