# Using ICM

Follow the procedure below to correct colors using the Windows ICM (Image Color Matching) function.

- ICM is a color management system that adjusts colors between I/O devices. Use this function to produce print results with colors as close as possible to those displayed on the computer screen. To use this function, the color profile must be added to the printer.

- You can find the color profile in the ICM folder stored on the CD-ROM provided. For information about adding a color profile, search for the words "color profile" in Windows Help, and then see the appropriate topic.

- This function is unavailable under Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0.
