Your Color Toolbox: Solving Process Control Problems with Gray Balance

Color management is more than International Color Consortium (ICC) profiles you load into your RIP or use to view images in Photoshop. In order to have a truly color-managed workflow, you’ll need a color toolbox containing the following six items: A spectrophotometer, light booth, calibrated monitor, Pantone® book, gray balance calibration method, and a loupe to magnify finished prints. This list is by no means all-inclusive, but with these tools you’ll be equipped to produce calibrated, consistent and repeatable color across multiple print devices over an extended period of time.
