Course, in principle, most systems can now use a "profile" for the
printer and display, so that, in theory, as long as you can also get
data from the display on what tweaks you have made to it, what you see
in the screen is "translated" through the profiles, to match what you
see to what has been printed.
This sort of works, some times. lol Usually, its just better to have a
display that is accurate, and printer that is, and thus, again, in
principle, have the two properly match colors properly. Usually that
meant a real high end printer, and a screen that supported "way" more
colors than a standard display, and had been "pre-tuned" to exact
specifications. Now.. most of them are pretty close to start with, and
most printers do a pretty fair job of producing similar output, so its a
bit less critical, except when it isn't.

I'm not sure how this would differ from a calibrated monitor. Of course,
monitors and printers are going to have their own profiles, to translate
from the standard calibration into whatever they need themselves for their
own individual inks or electronics.

That's the calibration.

That's the calibration, yes?

They do now that people have decided on a calibration.

I would have said that "calibration" implies that they measured not what
the average product does, but what the particular one you purchased
does. (I.e., it's set up per-device.)

Then you would be wrong.
Calibration is done to individual items. You cannot present a
calibration certificate to an inspector for a group of items.

I think that's what he said. And yes, I wasn't talking about the "average"
set-up. Of course everyone tries to get their "average" displays looking right.

Excuse me, I have a cold.
Ooops! Tired eyes. Will I ever be forgiven? :-)
