Re: [datacolor_group] SPYDER PRINT v Colourmunki for print profile

2012-04-24 by Cdtobie

>>The point of my story is that on a whim I asked friend to lend me his
Colomunki Photo. To my surprise the first profile which took only a
few minutes was spot on, or a least as good as the Spyder profiles
which were taking me a couple of hours per profile using multiple
sheets of paper with all the adjustments. 

Then there is something wrong in your process that is not happening with your Munki profiles, but is with your Spyder profiles. When I use both side by side the results are very similar initially, except for clogged shadows from the Munki at some intents, and more precise color detail from the Spyder if the printer is not linear (say a color laser...). So finding out where to error in your Spyder workflow lies, most likely in target printing, shoud solve the problem.
