Print images and PDF documents in ColorSync Utility on Mac

When printing an image or a PDF document with ColorSync Utility, you can choose advanced options for managing the document’s colors.

Open ColorSync Utility for me

  1. Go to the ColorSync Utility app on your Mac.

  2. Choose File > Open, then select an image or PDF document.

  3. When the file opens, choose File > Print, then click the arrow next to ColorSync Utility to show the options (if they’re not already showing).

  4. Click the Color pop-up menu, then choose an option:

    • Prematch to printer profile: Controls the color management of the printed output.

    • Hand off to printer: Lets the printer control the color management of the printed output.

    • Print as color target: Prints the document without any color management. This option is available only if the document uses the same color space as the printer—for example, when printing an RGB document on an RGB printer.

  5. If you chose “Prematch to printer profile,” click the Intent pop-up menu, then choose an option, such as perceptual, colorimetric, or saturation. See Set color printing options.

  6. Click Print.
