After placing the White Control Point,
you can control the luminosity of
the white point either with the slider
provided or by entering a luminosity
value into the White Point Dialog Box.
A Reset button is provided that enables
you to reset the White Control Point to

When you click on the Advanced
button, the advanced controls for

Luminosity Mode
The Luminosity Mode of the White
Control Point always changes the color
which is targeted by the White Control
Point to a neutral white, based on the
setting of this value. Because most
calibrated printers work best when
the image is set to a neutral white,
the Luminosity Mode is often the most
efficient mode to use. Within the
Luminosity Mode you are presented
with only one slider on the White
Control Point and only one entry box in
the White Point dialog.
