| Changing ICC Profiles for the magicolor 6100 |
| This Color Application Note describes the procedure to replace the internal ICC (International Color Consortium) profiles on the magicolor 6100. |
| Requirements |
| magicolor 6100 |
| Internal Hard Disk |
| FTP Client or CrownAdmin Utility |
| ICC Output Profile |
| Restrictions |
| This procedure is currently limited to magicolor 6100 printers with internal hard disks. |
| Note: KONICA MINOLTA does not provide the software or instructions to create new ICC destination profiles, but does provide the instructions to replace the resident ICC profiles. ColorBlind Professional and ColorBlind Matchbox are two software packages by ITEC Color Solutions that allow the creation of ICC profiles. |
| Overview |
| The magicolor 6100 has the ability to substitute ICC output profiles downloaded to its internal hard disk, for any or all of the four ICC destination profiles resident in the printer’s ROM. The four destination profiles represent the two resolutions (600x600 and 1200x1200 dpi), and the two types of halftones (standard and AGFA Balanced Screening), available for color management on the printer. Color management is not available for 300 dpi resolution. |
| Instructions |
| To substitute new profiles for the internal destination profiles, |
| 1) Create an ICC output profile that describes the new color space of your magicolor 6100. |
| 2) Rename the created profile following a standard 8.3 filename/extension, using the examples listed below for their corresponding resolution. |
| C1PCMYK.ICC 600x600 destination profile (standard halftone) |
| C3PCMYK.ICC 1200x1200 destination profile (standard halftone) |
| A1PCMYK.ICC 600x600 destination profile (AGFA ABS halftone) |
| A3PCMYK.ICC 1200x1200 destination profile (AGFA ABS halftone) |
| 3) Identify the current image mode by selecting Mode from the Image menu. The Image menu will not be available unless you have a file opened in Photoshop. |
| FTP Client |
| You must first have a specified IP address on your printer and on your host system in order to proceed. |
| 1) Launch your FTP client and set the client for binary transfer. |
| 2) Select the /USR directory (cd usr) and download your destination profile. You will not be able to use the DIR or LS commands from your client when connecting to the printer. |
| 3) After the file has been downloaded, turn off the printer and then restart it to register the new profile. After rebooting, your printer uses the downloaded profile instead of the profile resident in ROM. |
| CrownAdmin Printer Utility Software |
| To use CrownAdmin to load new profiles |
| 1) Launch the CrownAdmin application and select the printer. |
| 2) Access the Printer menu and select PS Utilities. |
| 3) Enter “ADMIN” as the password. |
| 4) From the Download Tab, choose your destination profiles by clicking the Local Files… button and selecting the correct file. |
| 5) Set the Remote Path field to “SYS:/USR”. |
| 6) Choose Download to send the new destination profile to the printer. |
| 7) Turn off the printer and restart it after the file has been downloaded to correctly register the new profile. After rebooting, your printer uses the downloaded profile instead of the profile resident in ROM. |
| Verify that the download was successful by using telnet or the printer keypad to print a CMM Profile page. The CMM Profile page provides a list of current profiles in ROM and on the hard disk. (Administration/Special Pages/CMM Profile Page/Yes). |
