First create a new profile entry with the button “New profile”. This
entry is “empty”, i.e. it doesn't yet contain color correction tables.
The new entry can be used to create a new profile using our ZEDOnet
profile creation service. If you have the necessary equipment
(spectrometer, profile creation software), you can also create and add
your own ICC profile.</P>

In the section “Select type of paper and print quality” choose the
desired print parameters for the new profile. It is important to choose
these settings carefully because color reproduction depends on print
quality, maximum ink saturation, type of paper, etc.</P>

The setting “Cartridge” is
only available for some printers. It is used to control printer
specific settings like “color” or “photo” print cartridge inserted,
gloss optimizer on/off, “matte black” or “glossy black” ink used.

You must also select the<B>
print quality</B> (print resolution) you want to print with on the
chosen paper. In many cases you will select the highest quality. A
profile can be used with all resolutions but the best results will be
achieved with the resolution at which the profile chart was printed.
</P>
<P style="margin-top: 0.21cm; margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 0; widows: 0">
The “<B>Ink saturation limit</B>
” specifies how much ink can be applied to the paper. The default
(“300%” for CMY/RGB printers, “250%” for all other printers) will give
good results in most cases.</P>
<P style="margin-top: 0.21cm; margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 0; widows: 0">
Depending on the paper, a
different level of ink is needed to achieve maximum color saturation.
The more ink is applied, the more saturated colors can be printed.
However, if too much ink is applied the ink will flow (“bleeding”).
</P>
<P style="margin-top: 0.21cm; margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 0; widows: 0">
Therefore you can determine
the maximum ink level for the chosen paper by printing a line with
increasing ink levels. This can be done with the “<B>Print ink limit
test row</B>” button. You can use the same sheet of paper for this test
row that you will use later for printing the color chart.</P>
<P style="margin-top: 0.21cm; margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 0; widows: 0">
In the printed ink limit test
row, find the box with the highest ink level where the ink does not
flow and dries within a few minutes. Set the “ink saturation limit”
control to the value printed in this box.</P>
<P align="justify" class="western" style="margin-left: 2cm; text-indent: -1cm; margin-bottom: 0cm; orphans: 0; widows: 0">
</P>
<P class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm"><B>Attention</B>
:</P>
<P class="western" style="margin-left: 1.25cm">If the value you choose is too high, the colors
of your profile chart will float and the chart cannot be measured. If
the paper transport rolls of your printer smear the printed boxes of
your profile chart, you will need to reduce the ink saturation limit
and reprint it.</P>
