Subject: RE: [Digital BW] Calibrated monitor/Dark prints
I used an EFI calibration tool/package, which looks exactly like the Macbeth
eye one device; we have it here at work. But you know, I don't think I ever
disabled Adobe Gamma, I should try that huh.
A test image? I have tried just eyeballing the print to the monitor, is
that sort of what you mean?
Thanks Tony,
Jim

How did you calibrate the monitors? Adobe Gamma or hardware device?
Have you tried using a test image file to judge monitor and print accuracy?
