This paper is dealing with a problem of managing and controlling color throughout the reproduction process. When color image is reproduced by different devices or on different media, its color appearance may vary quite a lot. This happens because different color reproduction media has different color gamuts, e.g. a range of colors they can reproduce. The purpose of this research was to identify the differences in color image reproduction when using CRT monitor and inkjet printer as the output reproduction devices. Color management techniques were used for achieving device independent color across different media used in the experiment. Procedure used for testing color reproductions was target-based, thus providing objective measurement and quantitative analysis of color.
