Monitor Calibration

[glorybound]

Spider Pro

I have a Dell widescreen LCD. Is this he correct calibration device for me?

That should work fine but there are others out there: GretagMacbeth EyeOne Display2, Pantone Huey, etc. I've got the i1 Display 2 running on my Dell 24" and it works great. Prints from my printer and labs are pretty close to the screen(close enough that I wasn't suprised) maybe a little darker, etc. but I didn't have a profile for their printer either.

Just a caveat that I learned the hard way. I have a Spyder too and love it. It does a great job. But dual-monitor support has more to do with your video card than the Spyder. If your card/driver won't support a *separate* profile being loaded on each monitor, NO calibration hardware will help you.

So, either use 2 video cards, or make sure your dual supports independent profiles.
