color reproduction

Printing pigment accuracy

Color reproduction is the process of recreating colors from an original source in another medium—printing an image, displaying a photograph on screen, or copying a painting.

The challenge lies in matching colors across different technologies, since monitors, printers, and cameras each handle color differently.

The color reproduction on this monitor is excellent.

Professional photography, printing, and design depend on accurate color reproduction to ensure what you see matches what you get.
