What is the best way to get around this ? First you need to verify that your monitor is actually showing what it should. I have no personal (good) experience with the LaCie calibrater, only one very bad one with the Sequel Croma iV device. A profile verification lit can do this (www.pixl.dk). > At the moment we have a > file saved with an adjustment layer on that corrects the image but we are > sure there must be a better way round this. There is, It's called an ICC printer profile, and it's the best and easiest way to get your printer in line (again www.pixl.dk).
