Turning Off Color Management in Your Printer
For best results, you should turn off color management in your printer when printing
an image using Aperture. By default, most printers are set to convert the image to the
printer’s color space. However, Aperture is designed to perform this conversion
internally. Each printer manufacturer creates its own print dialog. This means the
setting for turning off color management in your printer varies depending upon the
manufacturer of your printer and the printer model.
Note: If you have multiple printers connected to your computer, you must create a
print preset and turn off color management for each printer.
The following is a set of example tasks for turning off color management in Epson R2400,
Canon i9100, and HP Photosmart 8700 series printers.
To turn off color management in an Epson R2400 printer:
1
In Aperture, choose File > Print (or press Command-P).
The Print dialog appears.
2
Click the Printer Settings button.
3
In the dialog that appears, choose Color Management from the third pop-up menu
from the top of the dialog, and select Off (No Color Adjustment).
4
Make sure the other printer settings are correct, then click Done.
