Match colors to your computer screen

For most users, the best method for matching colors is to print sRGB colors.

The process of matching printer output color to your computer screen is complex, because printers and

computer monitors use dierent methods of producing color. Monitors display colors by using light pixels

that use an RGB (red, green, blue) color process, but printers print colors by using a CMYK (cyan, magenta,

yellow, and black) process.

Many factors can inuence your ability to match printed colors to those on your monitor:

●

Print media

●

Printing process (cartridge, press, or laser technology, for example)

●

Overhead lighting

●

Personal dierences in perception of color

●

Software programs

●

Printer drivers

●

Computer operating systems

●

Monitors

●

Video cards and drivers

●

Operating environment (humidity, for example)
