Hi,

So I’m trying to understand ICC files. I have just acquired a printer (Canon PIXMA Pro 200) and simply put: I would like my monitor to accurately reflect the print I’ll see on paper. So I’ve learned that I should calibrate the monitor. Can I do so by loading an ICC from the printer (I have several for the pro 200 for different papers), or am I missing a link? Thanks!

    Ok, thanks guys. So I now realize that there’s essentially a common representation (‘neutral’ in the above comment) that the ICC files will transform to. And I see the need to do this transformation for both printer and monitor.

    I’ll play around a bit and see where it gets me. Thanks again for the step forward!
