For color-sensitive work, the Color Profiles settings dialog allows you to install and manage color profiles for your displays, printers, and scanners. In order for color profiles to be used, the required daemon will need to be installed and running in the background:

https://xubuntu.github.io/xubuntu-docs/libs-common/images/icon_package.pngxiccd for display profiles

https://xubuntu.github.io/xubuntu-docs/libs-common/images/icon_package.pngcupsd for printer profiles

https://xubuntu.github.io/xubuntu-docs/libs-common/images/icon_package.pngsaned for scanner profiles

To calibrate your display, you will need to install DisplayCAL, GNOME Color Manager (https://xubuntu.github.io/xubuntu-docs/libs-common/images/icon_package.pnggnome-color-manager) with a ColorHug device, or a similar tool. If you would like to add a “night-mode” or “blue-blocker” feature, that will automatically transition the color temperature of the display throughout the day, you can install RedShift (https://xubuntu.github.io/xubuntu-docs/libs-common/images/icon_package.pngredshift).
