Yeah, I think so.

Before the part where it ran through all the colours, it should have done the brightness thing. Did it? I need to know that reading.

But you saw it in my instructions, yes?

Remember the brightness stage of the calibration process? The screen would have looked something like this: http://www.damiensymonds.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/23s5p14.gif Or this stage a little later: http://www.damiensymonds.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/29s5p16.gif Can you remember what your brightness reading was?

Oh, so the prints ARE darker than the screen?

In the prints, do you mean?

You didn't mention a problem with brightness. Only that your prints looked yellow? That's a colour problem, not a brightness problem.

And you're SURE it's not yellow light?

Ok, have you read this?

Ok, great! Now turn the lights back on, and move on to the print comparison step.

What's wrong with your screenshot? All you need to do is hit the PrtScrn button, then go to Photoshop and make a new blank file, and Ctrl V to paste the screenshot into the blank file, then save it as a jpeg and upload it.

Yes, follow my instructions exactly.

Don't you have a PrtScrn button on your keyboard like the rest of us?

Yes, you have both Brightness and Kelvin controls.

Lol, that's crummy, isn't it? Did you see this? Also this.

Can you show me a screenshot of that screen?

Keep going.

Don't worry about that, that's what the calibration is for. As long as the brightness is roughly in the ballpark, you can continue following the instructions.

Yeah, no. It has to go in the specific profiles folder that exists for this purpose. Read the instructions again, it will tell you where.

Great!

Hi Molly, where did you save the profile, exactly?

Yes, four or five would be good, if possible.

Yes, don't worry, that's very common. Lower that screen brightness, no matter how much you hate it.

I have to pop out to the post office. Back in ten or fifteen minutes.

Oh? What's strange about it? It's just a place to make the adjustments, which affect the whole screen. May I see a photo of your screen, and its OSD, to make sure we're talking about the same thing?
