Colour Matching
You can select the colour matching method manually. Since the way of reproducing colour and the reproducible range of colour between the monitor and the MFC are different, colour matching adjusts this difference. There are several ways to adjust colour for your MFC. Select the best one for your document. Execute PC monitor calibration to make these settings and make the result effective.
