Using ColorSync on the Macintosh

Every device you use for viewing or producing colors—your monitor, scanner, and printer—uses a different color technology. That’s why it’s difficult to get printed colors to match the colors displayed on your monitor.

Each device has its own gamut, or range of colors that it can reproduce. The Macintosh ColorSync system translates colors from one gamut to another so your monitor’s colors match your printer’s as closely as possible.

ColorSync uses profile information from each device— including your EPSON Stylus Photo 700—to achieve accurate color matching. First you have to make sure your monitor’s profile is set. Then you can use your printer software to specify the exact method of gamut mapping (color matching) you want to use.
