1. Creating a Simulation Profile (Add-on)

Procedure
  1. Prepare the measurement instrument and start the color matching menu.
    1. Set the measurement instrument.
      Set it to make it ready to perform the measurement.
    2. Click VW7-ICON_HamburgerMenu (hamburger menu) of the target printer in the main window, or VW7_Customize to the right of the target printer on the home screen.

      MEMO When using target printers that are not connected to VersaWorks, such as third-party printers
      Follow the steps below to print a profile chart. Next, measure the color and create the simulation profile.
      1. Select Printer Not Connected to VersaWorks.
      2. Create and save the profile chart data.
      3. Print the profile charts on printers not connected to VersaWorks.
    2. Select the target printer from Printer.
    3. Click Settings under Printing Conditions.
      The Printing Condition Settings window appears.

      Perform color measurement as directed in the instructions shown in the window.
    4. Repeat steps (1) to (3) to print and measure all charts.
    5. Click Next >.
  4. Create a simulation profile.
    1. On the simulation profile creation window, enter the names for the CMYK and RGB simulation profiles.
      Ensure that the names are not duplicates of existing profile names.
    2. Click Create.
      The CMYK and RGB simulation profiles will be created.
