I use the Spider 2 and set the monitor to native white point and gamma 2.2. I think as long as you're consistent and keep the calibration up to date, the specific settings aren't critical. The correct workflow will get you a matching print regardless of the specifics. I use gamma 2.2 because that's what most of my ad agency and retoucher clients and collaborators run. Paul
