Scanner Profile - Brother Model MFC-5200C User Manual

Perceptual Matching—All the colors of a given gamut are scaled
proportionally to fit within another gamut. The purpose is to keep
maintain the balance between the colors of the image. This is the
best way to get realistic images, for photographs and other realistic
graphics.
Saturation Matching—The relative saturation of colors is maintained
from gamut to gamut. So basically the colors are shifted to the edge
of the gamut to get the most saturated color possible. Rendering the
image using this intent gives the strongest colors and is the best
choice for bar graphs and pie charts, in which the actual color
displayed is less important than its vividness.
Relative Colorimetric Matching—The colors that fall within the
gamuts of both devices are left unchanged. Some colors in both
images will be exactly the same, a useful outcome when colors must
match quantitatively. What that means is that if the color is inside the
gamut, it will stay the same color. However, if the color is outside the
gamut, it will be mapped to the edge of the gamut. This intent is best
suited for logos or "spot colors" where color must match.
Absolute Colorimetric Matching—A close appearance match may be
achieved over most of the tonal range, but if the minimum density of
the idealized image is different from that of the output image, the
areas of the image that are left blank will be different. Colors that fall
within the gamuts of both devices are left unchanged.
