Apple ColorSync Utility

Apple provides a

ColorSync Utility

that allows selection of the ICC

color profile for your display and for the printer.

Setting the Display (Monitor) Profile

The Display profile will attempt to calibrate the display 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.

1.

Navigate to the utility by accessing your

Local Hard

NOTE

Other utilities are unavailable for Mac OS X (10.2) and
will only run on Mac Classic OS.
