Abstract:
1. A print color evaluating system comprising: an image processor that generates print data including at least one item of print content; a printing apparatus that produces a print based on the print data supplied from the image processor; a colorimeter that colorimetrically measures the print produced by the printing apparatus; and a color evaluating apparatus that evaluates color reproducibility of the print based on colorimetric values of the print produced by the colorimeter; wherein the image processor generates the print data so as to include: wherein the color evaluating apparatus comprises: a judgment condition acquirer, which identifies the type of input color space characteristics based on a colorimetric value produced by the colorimeter of the identification color patch on the print, and acquires judgment conditions for the color reproducibility depending on the type of input color space characteristics; and a judgment section that judges the colorimetric values of the evaluation patch group on the print, the colorimetric values being produced by the colorimeter, according to the judgment conditions acquired by the judgment condition acquirer, to thereby produce a color reproducibility judgment result.
