Color management tasks

If you want to use color management, you need to perform the following tasks:

  • Set up color management by embedding a color profile and using device profiles when scanning or printing. (See Set up color management)

  • Calibrate and profile your computer monitor. If you use an LCD monitor, use the profile that came with your monitor. See your LCD monitor documentation for instructions.

  • When you print an image from Photoshop Elements, make sure that the correct color profile is specified in the Color Management area of the Print dialog box. Or, if you don’t have a printer profile, specify colors using the color controls in the printer driver. In addition, choose a color setting that’s appropriate for your workflow, such as Optimize For Printing.
