ICC profiles are integral to matching customer brand colors as part of the color management process as different printers are able to produce different color ranges based on the media and inks in the printer. In addition, using the latest standard as recommended by the International Color Consortium (ICC) helps produce accurate color output.

ICC profiling in ONYX uses a three-step Print > Read > Next guide which walks users through the initial setup to the finished profile. To begin a new ICC profile, select “Media Manager” in the top navigation of the RIP-Queue and a dialog box will open. In the new dialog box, select “Create Profiles” to begin the Print > Read > Next Steps. With profiling using ICC Max, Onyx Graphics has provided a more detailed video that walks through the entire process.
