What is color calibration, and why is it important?

Color calibration is the way to make sure that the colors you see on your computer screen are as close as possible to other calibrated monitors and printers. At Laser Light, we calibrate all of our monitors to assure dependable colors on your files, and use printer profiles to make sure that our printed results are the best possible match to the on-screen color of your image. Color calibration allows you to standardize the color you see on your monitor with what is represented digitally in your file. If you are sending us ready-to-print digital files, and you want our prints to match the color you have on your computer screen, you need to be working with a color-calibrated monitor in an assigned color space.
