Abstract
A recalibration transformation is derived for a color image reproduction system having an input device and an output device by obtaining a medium conveying a selected color within a current gamut of the output device represented by first values in a first color space, scanning the medium with the input device to obtain second values representing the selected color in a second color space, applying a calibration transformation to map the second values to third values in the first color space, deriving an error transformation that maps from the first values to the third values, and deriving the recalibration transformation from an inverse of the error transformation that maps from the third values to the first values.
