A color management method using software, hardware, and methodology to control, to quantify and to compensate for printing device variability, including optimizing the range of colors a device is able to reproduce, that is, the device's color gamut. This methodology is useful for a plurality of printing machines and becomes an integral component of the print production process between the author/creator of the print project and the fulfillment print vendor. By means of theoretical color model applied to the print production process, this color management system optimizes the printing device's reproductive gamut thereby improving the appearance of printed materials in relation to other electronic media and display devices. In the process of meeting this objective, the color accuracy and automation of this color management system eliminates hours of manual retouching by color correction specialists and prepress experts.
