Input profiles
provide information about the colour in the original
device that was used to capture or display the image data. For
example, an input device could be a scanner, digital camera, or
monitor.
Output profiles
provide information about the device to which you are
printing.
The Using ICC Profiles function allows both an input profile

selected. It uses both these profiles to generate a CRD (Colour
Rendering Dictionary), and this is used to match the colours as closely
as possible.
NOTE
This feature may not work for all application programs. However, many
professional graphics applications offer a similar feature in their print
settings, with the ability to choose a source (input) colour space, and a
print (output) colour space.
