Next, ColorSync converts device-specific colors into standard colors. The CIE color standard describes colors in terms of how they are perceived by the human eye under standardized lighting conditions. (CIE stands for the Commission International de l’Eclairage, the International Commission on Illumination, which founded the standard in 1931.)

To maintain consistency, ColorSync previews a device’s color capabilities (in the ColorSync profile) and—where necessary—converts standard colors to closely matching colors that the device can reproduce. For example, your monitor may be able to display a vivid red, but your printer inks may not be able to produce that color. ColorSync determines the “next best” color for your printer to use.

Using ColorSync

The ColorSync profile for a device is automatically installed as part of the device’s software. To get the best visual color matching on your system, make sure the following display settings are selected:

mFor the best color match when printing, select the “page-white” or “D50” system profile for your type of display in the ColorSync System Profile control panel.

mFor the best visual match between the colors on your display and printed colors, select the Page-White Gamma option in the Monitors control panel. To select a gamma option, open the Monitors control panel, then hold down the Option key while you click the Options button. In the Options window, click the Use Special Gamma checkbox to put a check in it. Then choose Page-White Gamma from the menu.

mOn a multiple scan display, make sure that the color temperature, or intensity, is set to 9300 K (the default setting). See the display manual for instructions. If the Page-White Gamma option is selected with a color temperature other than 9300 K, your monitor colors could look too red or too blue compared to printed colors.

Some color devices allow you to set additional color options that affect the way ColorSync converts colors. See the instructions that came with the device for more information.
