I don't have any OSD controls besides brightness and the colormunki software suggests the brightness level to use. John_Wheeler: I'm using a 2011 Macbook Pro, so the monitor is the built in screen. To me it looks a lot more neutral with the profile turned off. I'm not sure how obviously grey the grey area looks. Rodeo_Joe: The print files do match the monitor, they just both look tinted too brown. (I know, I know, but the printer has aged to the point where OEM ink has more than doubled in price and it would be more cost effective to scrap the printer and buy a Pro-100 which I will do eventually - if only I could use that mail in rebate in Canada). After profiling, as I said, it matches the screen very well using the same non-oem ink. Is this normal behaviour for a colormunki photo? Is it possible I have a defective unit or I'm missing a setting? I got the device from amazon through a 3rd party fulfilled by amazon, and I'm not that sure it's really a new unit even though it's supposed to be.Īlso, before I started this little exercise my printer had a strong red tint using non-oem ink. So I don't think it's supposed to be like this and I just have my picture too brown. The brown cast on my display makes everything including the background of this webpage look tinted. I used photoshop CS6 autocolor and autocontrast and it looked pretty good without any profiling. The thing is it's image that I've printed through WHCC before and it came back from them looking perfect and very close to my unprofiled display.
And it came out with a brown cast that perfectly matches the way my display was profiled.

I copied the profile back to the mac and printed my image.

I could not get the mac print driver to not attempt to manage the colors, so I used a windows computer to create the profile which worked well. I decided to leave that issue aside and move on to the printer. I tried several times, different versions of the software, positioning the sensor at different angles, etc. I started by using it to profile the monitor and it gave me an unpleasant brown color cast. I just bought a colormunki photo with the intention of profiling the printer. Once calibrated save the profile with a suitable name.I'm using a Pixma Pro9000 MkII printer with a macbook pro. There is usually an OSD setting to move its window away from the centre of the screen.ġ2. Just make sure that the monitors OSD is not under the device as it will give incorrect readings. The software will then ask you to adjust the brightness of the screen using the OSD to bring it down to the 100Cd level and then, once set, it will take the readings to profile your screen.
Often the contrast is correct after a factory reset so it may not prompt you to alter it and go directly to the luminance setting.ġ1. If it finds this is incorrect it will prompt you to adjust the contrast (usually accessed from the screen’s OSD) up to 100% and then gradually bring it down until you get a tick in the meter at the top left of the screen. The software will initially check the screen’s contrast. After you have been prompted to calibrate the ColorMunki Photo (this occurs at the start of each calibration session), place the device on the screen. Click Next and this will then run the profile. Set the Target White Point for display to D65 (Default) this is ideal for photographic use*.ġ0. It is also worth considering fitting a monitor hood especially if you are working in brighter conditions.Ĩ. We generally recommend using a fixed brightness on the screen and try to control your working environment to keep it as stable as possible. Highlight the ‘Set the luminance of my display to the following target value’ option and set it to 100. In the ‘Verify Display Type’, select LCD.ħ. Un-tick the ‘Achieve display luminance value using video LUT’.ĥ. Set the Gamma to 2.2 (this will then balance contrast with that of print).ĭ.
On a Mac click ColorMunki Photo > Preferences, again from the top menu strip.Ī.

On a Windows PC click File > Preferences from the top menu strip. Start the ColorMunki Photo software and open the preferences. If the monitor has a colour temperature setting in the OSD set it to 6500K (D65).ĥ. It is always a good idea to familiarise yourself with the settings available through the monitors on OSD, as it will be used whenever you profile the monitor.Ĥ. The OSD can usually be accessed by pressing the menu buttons on the front of the monitor. Initially connect the ColorMunki Photo and reset your monitor to factory defaults – There is usually a setting in the ‘on screen display’menu (OSD). The document below takes you through the settings and options to obtain the best possible profile for your monitor.ġ. We are often asked what are the best calibration settings for their displays.
