RIP and Print Dialog Box Advanced Tab

The Advanced tab allows you to set advanced options specific to color printing jobs.

Output Settings

Color Correction
	Use Color Correction	Switches on the icc profile.
	Linearization Only	Uses only the linearization table and ink limits of the icc profile.
	No Color Correction	Switches color correction off.
Color settings	Clicking this button will launch the Color Settings dialog box
Ignore Overprint	Check to ignore any overprinting that was set up in the design stage. This can be useful if you want to save the time and output media needed to do overprinting.
	If you check Ignore Overprint, your output will automatically be changed so that it will not use features that depend on overprinting. For example, output that had been set up to use color trapping will now output untrapped.
Output Profile	Output profiles are created for the combination of ink, media, resolution and dither type of your output device. When selecting a profile, be sure to select the profile that matches these criteria. Select Add to add ICC output profiles from another source.
Preset	Select the preset to load the settings relevant to the Advanced tab from the preset. Only the settings relevant to the Advanced tab (media, color mode, dither type, etc.) will be loaded from the preset.
	Loading settings from a preset only affects the Advanced tab; it does not set the job to automatically use that preset in Production Manager.
Media	This setting is automatically set when you choose an icc profile. It shows the media name your job will be printed on.
Print mode	Select the desired quality of your printout. This setting is automatically set when you choose an icc profile.
Color mode	If your output device supports multiple color modes, then you can select one of the supported color modes here. This setting is automatically set when you choose an icc profile.
Resolution	Choose an appropriate DPI for your job. A higher DPI produces higher quality output but increases the processing time.
Dither type	Selects the dither type, or the pattern in which the individual dots that make an image are applied to the media.
Screen	Clicking the Screen button will launch a dialog box when the Angled Screen dither type is selected. You can adjust frequency, angle and shape for each output channel (CMYK).
Smooth Gradients	Switches on 16 bit rendering. This improves the quality of gradients but does increase the processing time significantly.
Apply Color Correction in Production Manager	Ignores all Color Correction Settings in the RIP and Print dialog and applies the settings that were set as default in Production Manager instead.

Miscellaneous Settings

Print substrate	If checked, the color of the drawing area will be printed with the design
Print dimensions and labels	Selects if the labels and dimensions added with dimension/label tools will be printed with the design.
Print as separations	Check to print each color plane separately. You can select to print one color channel or all color channels as a separate job.
	Print separations in color Check to make each process color separation print in the appropriate color of ink. If this option is not selected, all process color separations will print in black.
Use printer spot colors	Allows you to map the spot color used in the design to specific ink in the printer

Labels and Marks

Check Print Marks to print the selected type of mark. Set Color to the ink color that will be used to print the marks. The available types of print mark are:

Crop Marks	Adds crop marks to the output to aid in trimming the printout.
Standard marks	Standard marks intended for aligning color separations.
Swatch	Color swatches for each color of ink will be printed around the job.
Overlap Marks	Overlap marks will be printed, indicating how the tiles of a tiled job should overlap.
Tonal Scale	Color swatches containing blended CMY colors and a gray scale will be printed around the job.
Margin	Marks will be printed at the corners of the job indicating its outside margins.
Border	A border will be printed around the outside edge of the job.
Tile Trim Lines
Fotoba Mark	Marks will be printed for use with Fotoba trimmers
Fotoba Horizontal Mark	Horizontal Marks only for use with Fotoba trimmers will be printed
Neolt Cut Mark	Marks will be printed for use with Neolt trimmers

Print Color Bands

Prints a thin strip of each ink color along the selected edges of the print to show that all print heads are firing.
