Claims
- 1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
- output means for generating plural patches;
- input means for reading and converting the plural patches generated by said output means into image signals; and
- judgment means for judging patches indicating a substantially outermost part of a color reproduction range of said output means using the plural patches read by said input means.
- 2. An image processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising setting means for setting data indicating the outermost part of the color reproduction range of said output means based on patches judged by said judgment means indicating the substantially outermost part of the color reproduction range of said output means.
- 3. An image processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said plural patches generated by said output means comprise patches which indicate the substantially outermost part of the color reproduction range of said output means.
- 4. An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the generating of the plural patches and the judging are executed in accordance with different image output conditions.
- 5. An apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising storing means for storing a reproduction range information,
- wherein the reproduction range information is corrected on the basis of the patches judged by said judgement means.
- 6. An image processing method comprising steps of:
- generating plural patches indicating a substantially outermost part of a color reproduction range of an output means;
- reading and converting said plural patches into image signals; and
- judging patches indicating the substantially outermost part of the color reproduction range of said output means from said plural patches.
- 7. A method according to claim 6, wherein the generating of the plural patches and the judging are executed in accordance with different image output conditions.
- 8. A method according to claim 6, further comprising storing means for storing a reproduction range information, wherein the reproduction range information is corrected on the basis of the judged patches.
