Colors on your monitor or printed page are different from those in the original image . . . s Because your monitor and printer use different technologies to represent colors, your printed colors cannot exactly match the colors you see on your monitor screen. s Check the image settings in your scanner software, especially data format (bits/pixel/color), gamma correction, and color correction. Try a different combination of these settings. s Your software may not have sufficient color matching and color management features, or these components of your software may not be correctly installed. (See your software, monitor, and computer manuals for information on color matching and calibration.) 89
