Some people are better managers than others, and some just don't see well enough under various lighting conditions to be ABLE to manage it well. We can calibrate monitors, printers, and chose the right light but we can't calibrate with ease the way we see or don't see.

It is not to give you WYSYWIG. It is to manage your colour. With a monitor and a printer WYSYWIG is an impossibility. This is not to say that you can not get a better interpretation on your monitor, but don't expect it to be spot on, otherwise you will just be disapointed. ___ Thats what I always hear people who aren't getting a tight screen to print match say; but with care selection of displays, appropriate ambient lighting, good proofing lighting, well mannered inks and media, and some careful tweaking of printer profile preview functions, dead-on is certainly possible, at least at certain phases of the moon... -- C.
