Patent ID: 7474784

Claim:
An image processing device that performs a color process to a color image signal, comprising: an interface for selecting a profile describing color reproducibility to define a color conversion coefficient provided when performing color conversion of the color image signal, a standard recording medium corresponding to the profile, and a used recording medium to be actually used, each profile being defined with respect to one standard recording medium; profile designating part that designates a designated profile from among a plurality of the profiles according to an instruction of the interface; standard recording medium defining part that defines the standard recording medium corresponding to the designated profile; recording medium designating part that designates a used recording medium according to an instruction of the interface; and color converter that determines whether a defined standard recording medium and the used recording medium are the same, and when the defined standard recording medium and the used recording medium are the same, performs color conversion of the color image signal based on the designated profile, and when the defined standard recording medium and the used recording medium are different, performs the color conversion of the color image signal based on a difference in color reproducibility between the defined standard recording medium and the used recording medium, and a designated profile.
