Color Chart Types

When creating a chart on the Color Charts page, a unique Profiling Chart ID or Verification Chart ID is assigned to the new chart. For generating the ICC profile, use the PDF that is defined for the printer during the color chart configuration.
There are two types of charts:
Color Profiling Chart
Use this chart for creating an ICC profile. Print the color profiling chart using the recommended settings. For details, see Printing Color Profiling Charts.
Color Verification Chart
Use this chart to determine if the result of color adjustment conforms to the color verification standard. Print the color verification chart using the recommended settings. For details, see Printing Color Verification Charts.
The following information is included in the printed color chart:
