Methods of printing PANTONE Colors
There are two ways of working with PANTONE Colors:

Printer-specific PANTONE Colors

Your printer can produce process color simulations of PANTONE Spot Colors.

Use the following instructions when printing proofs for these types of print jobs:

  1. See Printing the PANTONE Color sampler charts to print a copy of the printer-specific PANTONE Color chart.

  2. Use the individual color reference numbers on the chart to select spot colors within an application.

  3. When you print your file, use the None color correction.

  4. If you are printing proofs with spot colors and process colors for final output on a 5+ color printing press: For any color that will be printed as a process color (not a spot color), replace the printer's PANTONE process colors with standard PANTONE Colors within the application before separating the file for printing press plates.

PANTONE Colors from selection books

In some applications, you can select colors from PANTONE Color selection books. These colors can be proofed on your Phaser 360 printer before final printing on a printing press.

Use the following instructions when printing proofs for these types of print jobs:

  1. Select PANTONE Colors within an application using the individual color values from a PANTONE Colors selection book.

  2. Print your file to a Phaser 360 printer with the TekColor Commercial Press color correction. (The proof colors may not be completely accurate, but the PANTONE Colors will be printed correctly on a printing press.)

  3. When you are satisfied with the proof, the file can be separated for printing press plates without adjustment to the file.
