| Gretag-Macbeth Eye-One Match.
I calibrate my screens every couple of weeks necause I do work for publication, and I need to know my screens are bang on.
Trying to get two monitors to look the same is pretty well impossible inless they are identical screens, and have close to the same number of hours on them.
Pick one screen and trust it.
Probably you don't want to trust your laptop screen, they are notoriously bad for colour.
Also, it isn't enough to profile your screen, you also need to tell your printer driver what paper is going through it (paper profile). If you can't do it with the printer driver, if you print from Photshop you can tell it to manage the colour, but then make sure you turn colour management off in your printer.
Often with consumer inkjet machines, you will have to build your own colour profiles if you really want a colour match.
If you are using Photoshop, learn about soft proofing, and make sure you are using the right View/proof setup. It's possible you have everything right in the background and are using the wrong screen bias. |
