Select the output profile for spot color edits

The Fiery Server maintains a spot color dictionary for each output profile. When you edit spot colors, your edits are applied to spot colors in jobs that are printed using the specified output profile.

Depending on your Fiery Server, you can either select the output profile directly or you can specify the print settings (job properties) of a job that will use the spot colors that you are editing. The Fiery Server determines the output profile from the print settings.

Specifying the print settings is useful if the Output Profile setting for the job that will use the edited spot colors is Use Media Defined Profiles rather than a specific profile. In this case the Fiery Server determines the output profile from the job’s media settings, so you cannot tell which output profile to edit the spot colors for.

In Device Center, click the Resources tab and click Spot Colors.
If Output Profile appears at the top of the Spot Colors window, select the output profile from the list.
If Properties appears at the top of the Spot Colors window, click Properties, select the print settings for the job that will use the edited spot colors, and click OK.
The print settings in the Properties window are the current default settings on the Fiery Server.

Note: Print settings that are not related to color management are ignored. In the case of a Mixed Media job, the print settings for the first page are used.
The Spot Colors window is updated with the Paper Source and Output Profile settings.
