Color management If the paper that you are using is not listed, or if you cannot find a paper type that resembles yours closely enough, you can define a new type. See Use non-HP paper on page 47. The printer then calibrates itself for use with that paper, after which you can return to installing the ICC profile. After you have selected the paper type, browse to the file that contains the ICC profile to use with your printer and paper. Normally, ICC profile file names end in the extension ".icc" (for International Color Consortium) or ".icm" (for Image Color Matching). The profile is stored in the correct system folder on your computer, and in the printer. Profile your monitor Also calibrate and profile your monitor (display device), so that the colors you see on the screen relate more closely to those that you see on your prints. You can do this in two ways: ● Use your operating system. In the HP Color Center, select How To Calibrate Your Display for further information. ● Use the optional HP Advanced Profiling Solution, which gives more accurate results.
