Different Monitor Colors and Printed Colors

MEMO

In the monitor, colors are expressed as a combination of the three primary colors (RGB). However, when printed, colors are expressed as a combination of the ink colors (such as CMYK). This difference in principles results in different ranges of reproducible colors and makes it impossible to have the exact same colors in the monitor and on the printed materials. In addition to this difference in principles, printed colors vary depending on factors such as differences in resolution, the color of the printing media, and the degree to which the ink has dried. Consequently, it is very difficult to match the monitor colors and the printed colors.

If the desired colors are not printed even after you have configured the above settings, use the Roland Color System Library.
