Viewing Conditions

example, the colors in a print may look different when viewed
standing next to a sunlit window, compared to how they look under
standard office fluorescent lighting.
Monitor Color Profile Select
Apple provides a ColorSync Utility → Devices that allows selection
of the Sharp supplied ICC color profile for your monitor. The profile
will attempt to calibrate the monitor to more closely match the
printer’s output. However, merely selecting the profile will not
automatically produce perfect results as many factors will contribute
to the gamut of color selection.
