I have a Canon 5200F scanner and a Canon i560 printer.
In the driver for the scanner - ScanGear - under Preferences, there's a page
for Colour Settings. The main choices are:
- Recommended
- Canon ColorGear
- None
Under Canon ColorGear, you can choose what appear to be colour profiles for
the scanner and the printer.
I'm wondering whether I would get the best colour fidelity if I explicitly
choose a profile for the scanner and the printer - especially because
they're both from the same manufacturer.
The manual is useless, and so is Canon online support. I asked them about
this, and their reply amounted to, 'we don't know enough to answer your
question'!
Is anyone familiar with ScanGear and/or ColorGear?
Cheers
