The source profile defines the RGB color space of the object’s
source: characteristics such as the white point, gamma, and type
of phosphors used. The output profile defines the gamut of an
output device, such as a printer. The Color Server (or host-based
Content Management System (CMS)) uses a deviceindependent
color space to translate between the source color space and the
color space of the output device.

The Profile Manager on the CX print server enables you to import

on the combinations of paper and toner that you are using. For
different media types, you need different destination profiles.

You can create custom destination profiles for each press and fine
tune the color outputs of the press, improve color matching
between presses, and improve color consistency over time.
