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 you
to adjust the color temperature through their control panels.
