Gamut mapping for Fiery Edge controls
These controls adjust the visual appearance of prints made using the perceptual and saturation rendering intent.
- Click the Gamut mapping tab.

Set the following values for
Perceptual gamut mapping:
- Chroma - Choose from three levels of chroma boost for the perceptual rendering intent. The Normal mode indicates that adjustments are not made to the chroma of the reproduction. The Colorful mode provides a modest boost of the in-gamut color. Select this mode to create slightly more chromatic output. The Vivid mode provides a more aggressive chroma boost to in-gamut colors. Select this mode when highly saturated colors are the goal.
- Brightness - Adjust the global lightness of the printed colors. Larger negative values produce darker colors and higher positive values produce lighter colors.
- Contrast - Adjust the global contrast of the printed colors. Larger negative values reduce the contrast and higher positive values increase the contrast of the reproduced colors. At the midpoint (0), the original contrast is preserved.
- Brightness in shadow area - Increase the lightness in dark colored regions selectively while maintaining the lightness in brighter tones. There are four levels of Brightness in shadow area adjustment: Normal, Lighten shadows (low), Lighten shadows (medium), and Lighten shadows (high). These settings progressively increase the brightness in the darker tone regions. Use these adjustments to enhance the detail in the darker tones.

Set the following values for Saturation gamut mapping (Fiery
Intensify):
- Chroma - Choose from four levels of chroma boost for the saturation rendering intent. The Normal mode indicates that adjustments are not made to the chroma of the reproduction. The Low mode provides a minimum boost of the in-gamut color. The Medium mode provides a modest boost of the in-gamut colors. Select this mode to create slightly more chromatic output. The High mode provides a more aggressive (large) chroma boost to in-gamut colors. Select this mode when highly saturated colors are the goal.
- Brightness - Adjust the global lightness of the printed colors. Larger negative values produce darker colors and higher positive values produce lighter colors.
- Contrast - Adjust the global contrast of the printed colors. Larger negative values reduce the contrast and higher positive values increase the contrast of the reproduced colors. At the midpoint (0), the original contrast is preserved.
- Brightness in shadow area - Increase the lightness in dark colored regions selectively while maintaining the lightness in brighter tones. There are four levels of Brightness in shadow area adjustment: Normal, Lighten shadows (low), Lighten shadows (medium), and Lighten shadows (high). These settings progressively increase the brightness in the darker tone regions. Use these adjustments to enhance the detail in the darker tones.
- Reference for Fiery Intensify rendering - Defines how the colors in your image are processed based on the reference RGB profile. Select either sRGB(PC) or Adobe RGB (1998). This control defines the way the colors in your image are processed, and produces vivid and highly colored prints. It makes best use of the gamut of your printer.
