A method of creating teacher data used for creating a color prediction model that predicts a spectral reflectance of a printed matter printed using an ink amount set from the ink amount set that is a combination of ink amounts of inks used for printing, includes, in an ink amount space in which a plurality of lattice points are disposed, selecting an ink amount set from an ink amount set associated with each lattice point, according to a predetermined selection rule, acquiring a spectral reflectance of a color chart printed on a printing medium using the selected ink amount set, and setting the teacher data using the selected ink amount set as an input value and the acquired spectral reflectance as an output value.
