Claim One:
1. A method of calibrating a color reproduction device, comprising the steps of: (a) scanning a standard target using a subject scanning means to generate a first plurality of color signals; (b) obtaining a second plurality of color signals, said second plurality of color signals generated by an object measurement means using said standard target; (c) creating scanner tables for said subject scanning means dependent on said first plurality of color signals and said second plurality of color signals; (d) scanning a subject target using said subject scanning means to generate a third plurality of color signals; (e) generating a fourth plurality of color signals using said third plurality of color signals and said scanner tables; (f) obtaining a fifth plurality of color signals, said fifth plurality of color signals representing desired color signals; and, (g) creating calibration curves for a subject color reproduction device dependent on said fourth plurality of color signals and said fifth plurality of color signals.
