X-Rite Guide to Color Management

Tired of Prints that don’t match your monitor?

The fact is all your devices – scanners, digital cameras,

monitors, and printers – reproduce colors differently.

There are even differences in the way individual printers

of the same model manage color. Many variables affect

color, including your ink and paper type.Time to take

control!

Color Management – is a way to set up your environment

(called a workflow) to allow all these devices to speak the

same language so you can get accurate and predictable

results. The ultimate goal is to match the colors of the

image displayed on your monitor with the ones produced

by your printer.



We use Color Management software to create profiles for

all your devices. A profile provides a description of each

device’s color gamut – the range of reproducible color.

You use these profiles in your workflow, and the result is

an accurate translation from one device to the next, giving

you consistent, predictable color.
