Message: [QUOTE="l_d_allan, post: 203233, member: 5680"] It depends on how high your expectations are for color on the monitor matching the print. Some observations: * With a decent monitor or better, you probably can't match the dynamic range (DR) and gamut of your monitor. "You can't get there from here". * If you are using a profiled/calibrated monitor and OEM ink + OEM paper, you can probably get decent consistency between the monitor and the print. * But if your quality expectations are higher than the above, or you are using non-OEM ink and/or non-OEM paper, then you have entered the realm of color management, which can be complex, long learning curve, and very, very fussy. Note that it is a separate issue whether the color of the original matches the color on the monitor. That can involve "repro-graphics" and camera profiling, another "dark art". [/QUOTE]
