I had been using the first generation Spyder for monitor profiling with adequate but less than ideal results.
I have been trying to use the Monaco OptixXR/EZ color system for profiling monitor, scanner and printer.
I believe I am following their instructions but the results are pretty awful if I use the printer/paper profiles I generate following their instructions. If I go back to just using the Monaco monitor profile and canned Epson 1280 paper profiles the results are adequate, actually slightly worse than what I got with the old Spyder.
Does anyone use the Monaco system successfully with an Epson printer? Are you able to use your printer/paper profiles in the way that the program instructions specify?

Yes I have used the Monoco system to profile my scanners (epsons 3179 & 4990) , monitors (Compaq fp7317 and Dell 2005) I print on an Epson Stylus Pro 4000. I have used profiles for Brilliant Supereme Glossy and Luster papers that gives excellent and consistent results.
