Title: Prints Too Dark
Post by: tlmgb on December 28, 2009, 10:39:14 pm

I am using a Samsung 245T monitor and a Canon Pro 9500 printer. The monitor has been calibrated using a Spyder3.   The paper has been profiled using Spyder.  When printing I turn the printer color management off.  The resulting prints are considerably darker than what I have on the monitor.  I'm looking for help on what I'm doing wrong.

Adjust the monitor's brightness...
