Color Application Notes
 
magicolor 2200 DeskLaser Color Management
The printer driver for the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser has the following color options in the "Image" tab (File-Print-Properties-Image):
 
 Disabled
Printing with "Disabled" will disable color management on the driver side. This option is useful for those using host color management, where the application takes care of color management and the data sent to the printer is already color managed. A host profile, DL2200RGB.icm is available for "ICC Aware" applications which are capable of doing host color management within the application. Settings in the "Color Management" tab of the printer Properties have no effect when color management is disabled.
 
 Window's Matching
If no profile is associated with the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser printer (in the Color Management tab of printer Properties), the results of printing using this option are unpredictable (Windows will select the wrong profile and the colors will not be correct). However, this option can yield desirable results by associating the host profile (DL2200RGB.icm) and setting it as default in the Color Management tab. Whether Automatic or Manual is selected does not matter as long as the DL2200RGB.icm profile is set as default.
 
 Driver's Matching
This option yields desirable results if no profile is associated in the Color Management tab. In the case that a profile has been associated and set as default in the Color Management tab, the results of printing with this option will be unpredictable (Double color management will be taking place).
The best results will be achieved by using one of the following two options:
- The DL2200RGB.icm profile associated with the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser printer and set as default in the "Color Management" tab, Window's Matching selected in the "Image" tab
- The DL2200RGB.icm profile not associated and no default profile set in the "Color Management" tab, Driver's matching selected in the "Image" tab
Both these options will yield slightly different results and the customer should experiment with both to determine which they find more pleasing.
