Samsung Syncmaster 940ux Quick Start Guide

							  
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 is only available for Samsung monitors and ensures that the color of the images on the monitor are 
the same as the printed or scanned images.  
For more information, refer to Help (F1) in the software program.  Installing the Natural Color 
Software  
Insert the CD included with the Samsung monitor into the CD-ROM Drive. The initial Natural Color 
screen will appear. Click on Natural Color in the startup window 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 Windows [Start] button, select [Run...].  
Enter D:\color\NCProsetup.exe and then press the  key.  
(If the drive where the CD is inserted is not D:\, enter the applicable drive.)
