Understanding Printing

Even if your ultimate goal is to produce high-quality color prints, it is recommended that you first obtain proofs from any printer you have available. You can use proofs from a black-and-white printer to check page size and image placement. Proofs from a color printer provide a general impression of what your image will look like. Keep in mind that the proof is not an accurate representation of a final print produced by an offset printing process. The final output is affected by a combination of the print process, inks, and paper types used.
