Color Management Using ICC Profiles
Each digital device such as a printer or monitor has its own "personality" in representing color tones.
Therefore, in order to correctly communicate the image's color tone from a camera to a monitor and then
to a printer, each device's "personality" needs to be communicated together.
Concept of a Profile
Without a profile (strong

The data which describes this "personality" is the profile. By communicating data using profiles, more
accurate color management can be performed.
The profile used in the color management system is the ICC profile. See the following page for ICC
profiles.
