Color correcting apparatus for printer

A color correcting method comprising the steps of:

• a) controlling a printer to print a plurality of first modulated images obtained by modulating colors of a first reference image having a plurality of colors;
• b) controlling said printer to print a plurality of second modulated images obtained by modulating a color of a second reference image having a single color;
• c) accepting a selection of a selected first modulated image among said plurality of first modulated images in accordance with said first reference image which is displayed;
• d) accepting a selection of a selected second modulated image among said plurality of second modulated images in accordance with said second reference image which is displayed;
• and
• e) correcting information for transforming image data to print data on the basis of said selected first modulated image and said selected second modulated image, said information indicating a relation between said image data and said print data.

A color correcting method comprising the steps of:

• a) controlling a printer to print a plurality of first modulated images obtained by modulating colors of a first reference image having a plurality of colors on the basis of first information for transforming image data to print data, said first information indicating a relation between said image data and said print data;
• b) accepting a selection of a selected first modulated image among said plurality of first modulated images in accordance with said first reference image which is displayed;
• c) correcting said first information on the basis of said selected first modulated image to obtain second information;
• d) controlling said printer to print a plurality of second modulated images obtained by modulating a color of a second reference image having a single color on the basis of said second information;
• e) accepting a selection of a selected second modulated image among said plurality of second modulated images in accordance with said second reference image which is displayed;
• and
• f) correcting said second information on the basis of said selected second modulated image to obtain third information.
