Color Matching
Factors that Affect Color Printing
Lighting (Viewing) Conditions
A document can look very different under various lighting
conditions.
For example, the colors may look different when viewed
standing next to a sunlit window compared to how they
look under standard office fluorescent lighting.
Paper Type
The type of paper used can also significantly affect the
printed color.
For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller
than one on specially formulated glossy paper.
