							What is a media profile?
Definition A media profile is also called an Océ Media Profile (OMP file). The media profile contains
a number of preset values that 
give the best print result per media type for your system.
By
 default the system already has a number of media profiles available after installation,
but due to changes 
in the production methods for media, the profiles can also change
over 
time. When a new version is available you can retrieve the new profile from the
corporate
 web site (http://mediaguide.oce.com).
When a

 new media type becomes available that you 
want your Océ ColorWave 600 to
support, you can 
install the corresponding Media Profile.
Attributes For each
 media type the media profile optimizes a number of settings.
• Mixing of

 colors (system setting, cannot be modified).
• Settings for

 optimal paper handling and runability.
Example When you

 
download a media profile from the corporate web site (http://medi-
aguide.oce.com) 
the file name can consist of the following information.
_____.omp  
,
for example ColorWave600_665_00_LFM090_PMC10_1012.omp
IDnumber = 
665 (for the Océ ColorWave 600)
ColorInfo = 
00 (possibility to use more than one media profile per media type) RIP 
= PMC10 (Power M Controller version 1.0)

							Note:
The media profiles for non-Océ media types are generic media profiles that give the best
possible result for a variety of the specified non-Océ media types. Because the media
profiles for

 Océ media types are 
fine-tuned for each specific media type, the quality of
the printed
 output will improve if you 
use Océ media types. 2.
Click the media type, for example 'Océ Red Label 75gr', to check the media profile infor-
mation.
3. Click the check box of a media profile and click the 'Enable' button in the toolbar above
the media profiles list to make 
the media profile available on the printer operator panel
and in
 
the print job submission applications. If you 'Disable' a media profile it will no
longer
 be available on the printer operator panel and in the print job submission applica-
tions.
4. Click 
'Install' if you must upload a new media profile.
Note:
You must download the new media profile from the Océ website before you can upload
the new media profile to the Océ ColorWave 600 
embedded controller. 5.

'Install' if you must upload an updated media profile.
Note:
You must download the updated media profile from the Océ website before you can upload
the updated media profile to the Océ ColorWave 600 
embedded controller. 6.
Click 
'Remove' to remove a media type that is no longer supported.
Note:
This action cannot be undone. Result
