Color Matching Setup
Color Matching is an important feature of ScanWizard Pro TX that ensures
consistent color — from the initial input stage when an image is captured by the
scanner, to the final output stage when the image is output to your monitor or
printer through either the Kodak CMS with ICC profile standard or Apple
ColorSync™ technology (the latter applicable to Macintosh only).

ColorSync™ technology (the latter applicable to Macintosh only).
Color matching is a critical component in the imaging process, because the color
space of your monitor is different from that of your printer (in terms of output
devices), just as the color space for RGB mode is different from the color space
for CMYK mode (in terms of image types). For this reason, color matching was
developed to allow an equivalent “mapping” of colors from one device or from
one color space to another, ensuring that no major color shifts occur in the
transference process.
