Profile Matching ). When you want to use an application software to specify a printing ICC profile, select
None .

							Optimal Photo Printing of Image DataWhen people print images taken with digital cameras, they sometimes feel that the printed color tones differfrom those of actual image or those displayed on the monitor.
To get the print results as close as possible to the desired color tones, you must select a printing method
that is best suited to the application software used or to your purpose.
Color Management
Devices such as digital cameras, scanners, monitors, and printers handle color differently. Color
management (color matching) is a method that manages device-dependent "colors" as a common color space.
For Windows, a color management system called "ICM" is built into the operating system. sRGB is one of the common color spaces that is frequently used.
ICC profiles convert device-dependent "colors" into a common color space. By using an ICC profile and carrying out color management, you can draw out the color space of the image data within the color
reproduction area that the printer can express.
Selecting a Printing Method Suited to the Image Data
The recommended printing method depends on the color space (sRGB) of the image data or the application software to be used.
There are two typical printing methods.
Check the color space (sRGB) of the image data and the application software to be used, and then select
the printing method suited to your purpose.
Adjusting Colors with the Printer Driver Describes the procedure for printing sRGB data by using the color correction function of the printer
driver.
