Epson Stylus Pro 4000 User Manual page 45

Tip: All the Stylus Pro
4000 printers on your
network should go
through this process to
ensure they are providing
the exact same color.
Note: If the color output
from the printer does not
match the settings in the
ColorBurst RIP, you may
need to linearize the
printer by printing a
linearization target and
creating a new
linearization file with
a spectrophotometer
and the included
ChromaCapture Utility.
See "Relinearizing an
Existing Printer Setup" on
page 51 for details.
Color Management and Printer Linearization
Linearization: Over time, your Stylus Pro 4000 printer may not be
•
producing the same accuracy of color as it did when it was new.
Changes to the printer age, environment, ink, and media lots all
have an effect on what the RIP thinks the printer is supposed to be
printing. To better explain to the RIP what the Stylus Pro 4000 is
printing, a linearization process is required. By going through this
process, you are correcting for any changes in your printer over
time.
Click the Linearization tab to view the window shown below. The
current linearization file is shown. To choose an existing
linearization (.LIN) file, click
. The file is saved in the current environment.
