Colors on your monitor are different from those in the original image.
Printed colors are different from those in the original image.
Problem
Solution
The colors displayed
on your monitor don’t
match the original or
printed colors.
Try increasing your monitor’s color palette to 16 bit or 24 bit.
Because your monitor and printer use different technologies to represent
colors, your printed colors cannot exactly match the colors you see on
your monitor screen.
Check the image settings in your scanner software, especially data
format (bits/pixel/color), gamma correction, and color correction. Try a
different combination of these settings.
Your software may not have sufficient color matching and color
management features, or these components of your software may not be
correctly installed. (See your software, monitor, and computer manuals
for information on color matching and calibration.)
