One of the recent problems in using a computer is  that the color of the images printed out by a 
printer or other images scanned by a scanner or  a digital camera are not the same as those 
shown on the monitor.  
The Natural Color S/W is the very solution for  this problem. It is a color administration system 
developed by Samsung Electronics in association with Korea Electronics &\
 
Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI). 
This system is available only for Samsung monito rs and makes the color of the images on the 
monitor the same as the printed or scanned images.  
For more information, refer to Help  (F1) in the software program.  
How to install the Natural Color software  
Insert the CD included with the Samsung monito r into the CD-ROM Drive. Then, the initial 
screen of the program Natural Color will be exec uted. Click Natural Color on the initial screen 
to install the Natural Color software. 
To install the program manually, insert the  CD included with the Samsung monitor into the CD-
ROM Drive, click the [Start] button  of Windows and then select [Execute].  
Enter D:\color\eng\setup.exe and  then press the  key.  
(If the drive where the CD is inserted  is not D:\, enter the applicable drive.)
