Calibration

Prusa Research

NR200 spectrocolorimeter calibration. Tier 1 fits a per-channel linear correction from three neutral references; Tier 2 fits a 3×3 XYZ matrix from a 24-patch ColorChecker. Tier 3 converts many Lab measurements to display hex variants in one paste.

Three points along the gray axis

Pick a reference standard — its certified Lab values fill the reference rows. Measure those same three targets with your NR200 and enter the readings into the measured rows. The correction is a per-channel linear fit (slope + offset) on L, a, b independently. Not ISO-certified; a defensible neutral-axis correction. For full instrument characterization, use Tier 2.

24 patches · 3×3 matrix in XYZ

Measure all 24 patches of an X-Rite ColorChecker Classic with your NR200. The tool fits a 3×3 correction matrix in XYZ space using least-squares regression — the same approach professional ICC profile builders use. References are the certified post-November-2014 ColorChecker Classic targets (D65 / 2°). You don't need all 24: the fit works with 8+ patches; accuracy improves with more.

Lab → HEX in batch

Paste many Lab measurements at once. Each row converts using the selected calibration tier and three hex renderings: Lab native (CSS lab()), MINDE (minimum-ΔE gamut map to sRGB), and Vivid (oklch chroma + lightness boost). Format: name, L, a, b or L, a, b · one per line · lines starting with # are comments.
