Natural Color Expert
Natural Color Expert is a program developed by Samsung to maximize and optimize the capability of the
Syncmaster XL20 monitor for broad color bands. It was developed to adjust the color characteristic
offsets for each monitor which can occur due to mass production. A Color Calibrator is provided which
allows the color characteristics of your monitor to be calibrated according to your needs.
With Natural Color Expert, you can create an icc profile for your monitor only. If required, you can also
create an icc profile with some changed monitor characteristics. Save this icc profile to your PC and as
the color mode of your monitor also, which allows you to view colors in a defined color space just by
changing the color mode of your monitor. You do not need to use a separate CMS program such as
Photoshop.
Natural Color Expert contains four (4) tabs: Calibration, Emulation, Uniformity, and Miscellaneous. The
Calibration tab allows you to create an icc file. The Emulation tab allows you to change the monitor
characteristics by converting color bands. The Uniformity tab allows you to enhance the uniformity of
your monitor. The Miscellaneous tab measures the current status of your monitor.
