Sounds like it means "If you set up color management with a proper 
profile you'll get consistent results", though the wording is so strange 
I can't be sure. Since it's about Kodachrome it may have been written 
before the argot of color management was widespread enough to be 
understood by many people (including the person at Kodak who wrote the 
above).
Actually, since it's about Kodachrome, it may have been written before 
movable type was invented. Did the document have hand-drawn 
illuminations in the margins?
