Morning, my experience of printing has been limited to snaps on the home printer and posters via the usual mainstream online photo printer services.
I now want to get some images professionally printed on to canvas, for display in our cafe (for when we are allowed to open indoors ).
I've run some test prints on photo paper at home and results have been ok-ish - eg the image on screen differs to the printed image, either brightness, muddy whites or over saturated colours.
Have read all sorts about proper monitor calibration and have a "wanted" ad in the classifieds for a Colorimeter.
My question is, can my monitor be calibrated? I'm guessing so.
Dell U2412M monitor
Windows 10
GeForce GT705 graphics card
Under Color profile in W10 settings I get the option of:
D6500 color profile or
sRGB display profile with display hardware configuration data derived from calibration
Thank you
Paul
