The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a colored filter. The method comprises: a step one of forming a black matrix on a substrate, wherein the black matrix defines at least one first pixel area, at least one second pixel area and at least one third pixel area; a step two of pressing a micro embossed pattern of an elastic stamp coated with a first color sol onto the first pixel area;a step three of printing the first color sol on the elastic stamp to the first pixel area to form a first color class; and a step four of forming a second color class in the second pixel area and forming a third color class in the third pixel area by repeating the step two and the step three. The method for manufacturing the colored filter replaces the comparatively trivial technology of micro-lithography and etching for manufacturing the color class in the prior art, has simpler processing steps, reduces cost, obtains the color class pattern with clear borders at the same time, and improves accuracy.
