Can I change my monitor display settings to fit your printing machines?
The color spectrum of a modern screen is larger than the spectrum of any printing machine. The chance to print exactly what you see on your screen is limited. Moreover, misconfigurations and wrong settings and amateur screens can lead to color appeal. However, you don’t have to worry since by applying few simple techniques we can approach fine printing results.
The brightness of the environment also affects the color perception. So imaging differences between two screens or printed colors are normal to exist.
Adjusting your screen settings as shown below will give you the best results:
Color Temperature: 5500 Kelvin
Gamma: 2,2
Illumination: about 120-160 cd / m2 (also depends on the natural light in the room) 160cd / m2 correspond to the illumination level at 500lx.
If you own a measuring device (photosphere meter) and a related calibration device, you may follow the software information you have.
If you do not have such device (which is the case for most customers), we recommend that you use the Contrast and Brightness settings from the following file:
Please open the image from the link with any image viewer and view the image in full screen.
Adjust the Brightness of your screen so that you can hardly see the first (left) of the four cycles, and you can barely distinguish the second one.
Your device, allows you to change the color temperature, contrast and brightness settings, and enter the following values.
