Color Management of the Printer
Color management has been correctly performed for a newly purchased printer, and it is adjusted to
produce appropriate print results. However, due to a large amount of output or long periods of use, there
may be substantial transition from the newly purchased state. In that case, by performing calibration of
the printer using Color Management Tool Pro, you can make it closer to the newly purchased state. In
addition, even when you are using a printer that cannot be calibrated, you can print in a way suitable for
the current state by creating an ICC profile.
Printer Calibration and ICC Profile Creation
Printer Calibration
This is the function for reducing changes in the color reproduction due to an environmental change or
lapse of time, and for reducing differences in the color reproduction between one printer and another
when using more than one printer. When you perform calibration with any of genuine Canon paper, it
will be applied to the printer output on other paper as well.
ICC Profile Creation
ICC profiles can be created individually for the paper to be used. As for the printer that has transitioned
from the newly purchased state, you can make the print result closer to that originally intended by
creating an ICC profile suitable for the printer's current state.
