Abstract

A common profile is prepared that, in a device-independent first color system, converts image data of a color space that is representable by the first color system into image data of a color space that is commonly representable by the plurality of printing devices, and first image data representing an image to be printed is converted into second image data by using the common profile, where the image is represented by the first color system. Then, the second image data is converted into third image data by using an output profile, where the third image data is image data of a second color system that depends on a specific printing device designated from among a plurality of printing devices and the output profile is unique to the designated specific printing device. The third image data thus obtained is output to the designated specific printing device and printed.
