I am considering purchasing a X-Rite i1Extreme Spectro.
Should I purchase the i1Extreme with the "UV cut" or without?
I don't think I will be using too many papers with OBA's but my understanding is that you need the UV cut for papers with OBA's. Is there a downside to getting the i1Extreme with the UV cut filter?
I'm a really "newbie" when it comes to all of this. I have been profiling my monitor with a Monaco Optix XR (DTP94) and ColorEyes Display Pro. I plan on replacing my Epson 2200 with an Epson 3880 and I want to profile a number of different papers and of course come close to obtaining the "holy grail" of matching screen to print. I am familiar with Soft Proofing and techniques from the Luminous Landscape videos as well as from Jeff Schewe, Holbert, Rodney, etc. Currently, I am using purchased profiles which now don't seem to be "working." Those profiles are a number of years old which certainly could be a part of the problem.
Thanks for any help in advance!
