Every Standout Display delivers rich, accurate color at 100% DCI-P3. A color profile tells your Mac or PC exactly how your panel reproduces color, then corrects for it in real time. Pick your model below and install in a minute.

3. Add the profile

Drag the .icc file you just unzipped into that folder. macOS may ask for your password to confirm.

4. Connect and arrange your displays

Plug in your Standout Display, then open System Settings > Displays. If you haven't done so already, click Arrange and drag your Standout so it sits above your main display. This matches the physical above-laptop setup, so your cursor moves naturally between screens.

5. Select your Color profile

With your Standout still selected, open the Color Profile menu and choose your newly added profile (it appears under its file name). You're all set, the system will remember your choice from now on.
