[QUOTE="infocusinc, post: 1286129, member: 193687"] The proper method is to match your monitor to your prints and print viewing conditions. The color munki is a fine piece of kit, and it makes decent printer profiles and I'm also very happy with the monitor profiles. What settings are you using to calibrate? For example I have a NEC 2690 with Spectraview and I can choose with a mouse click any number of calibrations. I have, among others a pre-press print profile that is 5000k 120 cd/m2 2.2 which is a perfect print match with my Epson 2200. On the other hand I also have a 6500k, 150cd/m2, 2.2 for web work that is blue and unsaturated compared to my prints. Match the monitor to the prints..... [/QUOTE]
