I am look for a good color profiling/calibration system to get good print out.
I just bought the SpyderPRO/PrintFIX bundle. The PrintFIX profiles I made for my Canon i9100 made the print come out much closer to the screen version but it has too much blue. Unusable. As for the LCD monitor calibration, I don’t have any idea if it’s doing its job and how close. But I think it’s working by looking at my photo images. But shouldn’t it come with something like the Gretag Macbeth color sample for verification, one on paper and one in a file to judge side by side? This is like an eye doctor say he made my eyes perfect but how do I know without a known reference? How can this be verify?
Also I didn’t know the printer profiling works on a few Canon and Epson printer models only. I also have Sony and HP and it doesn’t support those. It doesn’t profile scanner, either.
I am not too thrill with this. I think I am going to try the Monaco EZColor basic bundle. It’s in the same price range and it’s about as much as I would want to spend. Would it work better? Are there other choices?
I like to hear some feedback/advise before I buy again.
