Correction accuracy prediction device, correction accuracy prediction method and correction accuracy prediction program

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a correction accuracy predicting device, a correction accuracy predicting method and a correction accuracy predicting program capable of correctly determining a correction accuracy according to a correction relation data for correcting color shift in a printing result, with little time and effort. PSOLUTION: A method for predicting accuracy of color correction comprises the steps of: inputting a first data obtained by colorimetry for a plurality of first patches used as a reference of color correction, and printed based on a plurality of levels of tone data; inputting a second data obtained by colorimetry for a plurality of second patches printed on a printing equipment to be an object of color correction, based on the plurality of levels of tone data; associating a first data corresponding to an arbitrary tone data with a second data having a minimum color difference; generating a correction relation data for each tone data, by associating the arbitrary tone data with a tone data corresponding to the associated second data; and predicting the accuracy of color correction performed using the correction relation data, based on at least color difference between correction relation. The color difference at correction relation is a color difference between the first data and the second data associated with using the correction relation formation means.
