There are two ways to print the PANTONE Color sampler chart for your
Phaser 300X printer:

• Open the PANTONE® Phaser 300X.pdf file in Adobe's Acrobat Reader application, and print the pages you want; see "Printing individual pages from Acrobat".
• Download the PANTONE® Phaser 300X.ps file to the printer to print the entire sampler chart (about 46 pages in length); see "Printing the entire chart". Use only the None color correction option when printing the PANTONE Color sampler chart or when printing PANTONE Colors from an application. Using any other color correction will cause PANTONE Colors to print incorrectly.

1. When you install the Pantone Files from the printer's CD-ROM, also install the Acrobat Reader Alias and the Printer Utilities option from the Custom Install window; see "Installing the printer's software" for instructions.
2. Locate the Acrobat Reader Alias in the PhaserTools folder on your hard disk, and double-click the alias; the original source on the printer's CD-ROM opens.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Acrobat Reader onto your hard disk.
4. Once Acrobat Reader is installed, locate the PANTONE® Phaser 300X.pdf file in the Pantone Files folder inside the PhaserTools folder on your hard disk. Double-click the file to launch Acrobat Reader and open the file.
5. Select the appropriate printer in the Chooser.
6. View and print pages from the color sampler chart file as desired.
