Sorry I didn't see this notification. I recently printed this photo (I hate posting this because the posing is not good at all, it was a VERY impromptu five minute shoot with my daughter and niece). When I printed it with a professional lab (ProDPI) it came out quite a bit darker - the background almost looks black (sharing a picture of the print, it looks a little lighter than it really is in this photo). Also it is quite a bit warmer, but when I did a test print on my home Canon photo printer it came out very cool. Using a Mac Studio Display screen and the SpyderXPro. This was all before taking your class, ensuring everything is sRGB and making all the other recommended changes you've given. I did use the calibrator though before editing and then printing this.

No, I followed the calibration article/guide I found in your resources for the Spyder. I know you said at one point that of course the screen will never exactly match the print - but are you saying to start with the Spyder calibration and then manually adjust to match the print? Do I adjust in the Spyder program?

I'm talking tiny tiny percentages of difference.

Your screen should damn near exactly match your prints.

Follow my calibration instructions again please.
