RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Advice on Calibration HW/Software

If you are happy with EZColor for calibrating your monitor, you can just buy
PrintfixPro (Google finds various sources online for $350 and up). You can
then download Spider3Print from Colorvision as a free upgrade to the
PrintFixPro software. I have used PrintFixPro and Spyder3Suite and can't say
that I have noticed a difference between them, although my experience with
both is, as yet, limited.
