Viewing Conditions; Monitor Color Profile Select - Xante CL30 User Manual

• A monitor can display very vivid colors such as intense reds and
blues and these cannot be produced easily on any printer using
toner or ink. Similarly, there are certain colors, (some yellows, for
example), that can be printed, but cannot be displayed accurately
on a monitor. This disparity between monitors and printers is often
the main reason that printed colors do not match the colors
displayed on screen.

Viewing conditions

A print can look very different under different lighting conditions. For
example, the colors in a print may look different when viewed
standing next to a sunlit window, compared to how they look under
standard office fluorescent lighting.

Monitor Color Profile Select

Apple provides a ColorSync Utility — Devices that allows selection
of the XANTÉ supplied ICC color profile for your monitor. The profile
will attempt to calibrate the monitor to more closely match the
printer's output. However, merely selecting the profile will not
automatically produce perfect results as many factors will contribute
to the gamut of color selection.
