[QUOTE="jbv, post: 1285604, member: 212303"] [b]21.5 in iMac calibration with HueyPro[/b] I have a year old iMac with Radeon HD 5670 graphics and an Epson 3880 Pro printer. With a HueyPro-calibrated monitor, my prints do not match the screen: the prints are warm and saturated but the screen is cool and unsaturated. With the uncalibrated monitor, my prints match the screen very well irrespective of whether the printer or Photoshop CS5 controls color management. I am thinking about getting a Color Monki to calibrate both screen and printer but I am concerned that I may encounter the same issue of print mismatch, or not see much improvement over the uncalibrated monitor. I would appreciate comments on what could be causing the HueyPro issue and whether it is worthwhile to upgrade to the Color Monki. Thanks. jbv. [/QUOTE]
