Because of differences in equipment, paper and inks and other conditions between color proofing and production pressroom operations, a reasonable variation in color between color proofs and the completed job is expected, unavoidable and shall constitute an acceptable delivery.

Unfortunately time to time there is a misrepresentation of color due to soft proofing because of calibration of one monitor to another.
