There is a basic difference between a color monitor's display and that of a reflection print. These differences are similar to that of an original transparency, and the print reproduction of it.

The monitor, like the transparency, has a dynamic range that far exceeds that of a reflection print.

Color calibration is basically matching your monitor to look like your print job, whether it's photo or press work.

Advances are being made in this area everyday.

There are conflicting proprietary standards, but the dust is settling.
