Factors that Affect Color Printing
Monitor Settings
The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change
how your document looks on-screen. Additionally, your monitor
color temperature influences how "warm" or "cool" the colors look.
There are several settings found on a typical monitor:
• 5000k*
Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics arts
environments.
• 6500k*
Cooler; approximates daylight conditions.
• 9300k*
Cool; the default setting for many monitors and television
sets.
*k = degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature
NOTE
Several of the Color Matching options make reference to
your monitor’s Color Temperature. Many monitors allow the
color temperature to be adjusted through the monitor’s
control panel.
