Upgrading Print Calibration

2008-08-02 by outbacksubaru2001

I have the Spyder 2 Pro Studio with the Print Fix 1.2.
The print fix has also been a pain to use.  Not only that,
the colour sheets that came with it for scanning, arrived scratched.
Support have never helped me with this.

I am considering two options for calibrating my printer, which is a
Canon i9900.

The first option is a all in one solution.  The Color Munki Photo.
This would do my monitor and my printer.  However, it does limit
my options for luminence setting of my Samsung P193+ monitor.  Also, 
I have read some of the users feedback, and I am not sure if this is 
the way to go.

The second option would be to continue using my monitor calibration 
device (Spyder 2.2 Pro Studio) and buy the Spyder 3 Print to work with
my existing monitor calibration device.

The price for either would be the same for me.

Will the spyder 2.2 pro monitor device and the spyder 3 print device
work together?

I am definately not interested in paying an additional $100 to get the
Colorimeter 3 when I have the 2.2 Colorimeter.  As I have said before,
I have not been happy with their customer support.

Thanks for any of your help,

Lee
