Abstract

A control station for a printing press, includes at least one true color monitor for displaying at least one soft proof serving as a color reference for printed copies printed during the printing process, and at least one standard light source for at least partial illuminating the control station to allow visual comparison, independent of room lighting, of a printed copy with the soft proof serving as the color reference. The luminosity produced by the at least one standard light source is variable, so that the luminosity produced by the at least one standard light source can be adjusted to match a brightness achievable on the true color monitor to match a contrast achievable on the true color monitor during the display of the soft proof.
