Printing PANTONE Colors
If Phaser 350 printer’s printer-specific PANTONE Colors are not printing as
expected, make sure you are printing with Enhanced (600 x 300) mode with
color corrections set to None. Refer to “Printing the PANTONE Color Chart”
in the on-line manual on the printer’s CD-ROM for more information.
There are many variables in process reproduction of colors generated by the
Phaser 350 printer, any one of which may affect the quality of the PANTONE
Color simulation, including:
■ Type of ink used on printing press
■ Type of ink film used on printing press
■ Effective final resolution
■ Dot structure/halftones
If you have questions about PANTONE Color Matching, you can get
information in the following places:
■ HAL: Request a document catalog from HAL or EuroHAL,
Tektronix’ automated fax systems. Refer to “Using the automated
fax systems” on page 6-2 for instructions on using HAL and
EuroHAL.
■ World Wide Web: If you have access to the Internet, you can view
selected topics on the Phaser 350 printer’s web page. Access the
printer’s documentation from this web address:

Blue colors look too purple
If printed blue colors look too purple, print your document with the
Vivid Color color correction. Refer to “TekColor corrections — making the
best selection” on page 4-3 for more information.
