A method for monitoring color of a printed image printed on a substrate, the method comprising the steps of: positioning a camera assembly to receive light reflected from the printed image on the substrate, the camera assembly including a structure for producing a signal; transmitting the signal from the camera assembly to a computer; and processing the signal in the computer to correct for the effects of scattered light reflected from the printed image.
