Since the printer and monitor produce color images differently, and also
the available range of color produced by the monitor and printer are
different, the image on the screen does not exactly match your printed

with the printer driver settings.

software and monitor companies to help you match colors produced by
your monitor and printer. See your image-editing software user’s guide
for information on color matching.

When printing a scanned image, you may find it more difficult to match colors.

your image will be changed twice.
