And for those of you on Linux... ColorMunki actually works with Agryll and you can calibrate natively in linux as well! It isn't just a PC/Mac thing anymore.

I thought this was going to be a "throw away the Munki and get a Spyder Pro" thread. :)

I use Spyder pro. Really have been pleased with it. It also matches my printers machines, (mpix).
I see you are from LC, My sister and brother in law live there on Shell Beach road, 1 of only 3 houses on the water side.

I’m trying to get my printer to match what’s on the monitor. I have CS-5 Photoshop that I’m using for corrections. I’m trying to match my Eizo ColorEdge CG223W monitor to my Canon iPF5100 printer. At this point they are not even close. I also have a Colormunki for calibrating the monitor. I seem to have all the right equipment, what I need is someone to help me tune it all together.



Do you have some recommendations on who to use?
