Choosing the right monitors for a 
color management system
The Importance of Color Management
In today’s digital production environment, there are 
many opportunities for discrepancies in color to arise 
along the path from the computer to the printer. This 
is because input devices (cameras, scanners, etc.), 
display devices (monitors) and output devices (vari-
ous kinds of printers) may all be set to different color 
spaces. Such discrepancies can be avoided by employing a color 
management system that ensures every device in the production 
chain is set to a common color space.
Color Management Begins with  
the Monitor
The monitor is the core of any professional color man-
agement system. If color is displayed accurately on the 
monitor, and color matching has been done with the 
output device, then you no longer have to make mul-
tiple proofs just to correct for color discrepancies. You 
can proof with confidence right from the start, while 
lowering costs, increasing efficiency and improving 
quality control.
