Damien Symonds Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 @Michelle Zeiss, talk to me. In what way does your screen not match your prints?
Michelle Zeiss Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Hi Damien, I have been working on a Mac Book Air without a calibration system. I seems that there is too much magenta in my images. I ordered a Benq 2700 monitor and X-rite Display Pro and it will be arriving tomorrow. I need to order prints but I have been waiting for my new system to arrive. Should I calibrate as soon as I get the new monitor? Should I order prints after I calibrate?
Damien Symonds Posted October 31, 2019 Author Posted October 31, 2019 No no no. You don't need new prints. Whatever prints you have are fine, as long as they're from your usual lab. If you don't have prints, order them RIGHT NOW, because you can't calibrate until you have them in your hand. Calibrate the minute your equipment arrives, and let me know how it goes.
