HP LP2480zx Digital Color Workflows and the HP DreamColor LP2480zx Professiona - Page 8

The HP DreamColor LP2480zx Professional Display The HP DreamColor LP2480zx display is the next step for professionals that work in a color-critical environment (Figure 4). The display combines 30-bit color (over one billion color possibilities) with unprecedented color control to provide end-to-end color predictability in a digital color workflow. Figure 4. Major features of the HP DreamColor LP2480zx Professional Display. Features The display is a 24-inch diagonal widescreen (1920 x 1200 resolution) Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) with HP Tri-color LED Backlight. The LCD panel has 30-bit color accuracy (10-bits per color channel), which provides a total of over 1 billion color combinations. With 30-bit color, the number of colors is greatly increased, reducing banding artifacts that can be present in today's 24-bit displays. The RGB LED backlight provides an extremely wide color gamut (Figure 5), and ensures stable control of white point and luminance. The HP DreamColor Engine provides accurate color management and color space remapping. The Engine supports multiple color space emulation presets, including full gamut, Rec. 709, sRGB, Rec. 601, Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 emulation (97%), as well as user-defined color space. The emulation of these spaces without loss of 8-bit dynamic range is achieved through a combination of color space remapping by the HP DreamColor Engine; 10-bit drivers on the LCD panel; and white point control via the LED backlight unit. All of the HP DreamColor LP2480zx display parameters can be adjusted via standard display-control interfaces (USB & DDC/CI interfaces and MCCS command-set), enabling the use of standard or custom color calibration software. 8
