Abstract:
Provided are a printer, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and a scanner-profile creation method. In a printer including a print engine, a scanner and a color measurement device, or a printing system including a printer, a scanner and a color measurement device, a controller creates a scanner profile by using RGB values and color measurement values obtained by measuring a first color chart with the scanner and color measurement device, and determines a first color gamut and a second color gamut of the printer by using one or both of RGB values and color measurement values obtained by measuring the first color chart and a second color chart, respectively, where the second color chart includes at least color patches in specific colors representing a color gamut of the printer. The controller further corrects the scanner profile by comparing the first color gamut and the second color gamut.
