Color Device IHV Support

To ensure that your device benefits from the color management capabilities of ICM 1.0 and 2.0, a set of requirements is specified for monitors and printing in the PC 97 Hardware Design Guide.

For PC 97 requirements for the "Designed for Microsoft Windows" logo program, color matching is a requirement for desktop and large monitors and for color printing. It is a recommendation for LCD, color plasma displays, or other flat panel devices. This will become a requirement in future versions of the logo program.

Minimum implementation of ICM color matching requires one or more ICC profiles to be installed. Providing a monitor color calibration utility is recommended for generating, editing, and installing ICC profiles.
