Thanks guys I always wondered if I should get it close and the. Run calibration (like the instructions said) or just get it to bang on 6500k or just match prints. Does this man next time I calibrate I just match my prints? If so why do I even need a calibrator?

The darks and lights look good just not the skin. Should I just calibrate to exact 6500k using gain controls on monitor? 

Did this change from last night? i swear those instructions weren't there.... i must be losing my shit. ok so I did it all the proper way today following the instructions to a T now my prints brightness looks ok but look like they have a red cast. when i look at the printed  pictures above the skin is defiantly more pink/red (like a tan) but my monitor shows them as very pale.

So I am trying to calibrate my ASUS PA248 using my spyder4Pro. I used your steps but it seems some are missing cause it talked about writing down default degrees K but never uses the information. and the troubleshooting is missing as well. Please help the darks arn't dark enough and the images are colder then prints. I have attach 2 of the print files .
