Hi,
I hope someone may be able to help me with this problem. I recently upgraded to a new LCD monitor and since then I have been fairly unhappy with the results Im getting from my prints. Im finding that consistently my images are coming back from the printers (both PhotoBox and Loxley Colour) quite a bit darker than the image appears on my monitor. I purchased a Spyder Pro monitor calibration tool which has given me a very good colour profile. In terms of colour reproduction Im very happy that colour tones are coming back as Im seeing on my monitor. Its simply that the printed images are quite a bit darker.
Ive attached a couple of recent images which both appear to be fairly well exposed on my monitor. I would appreciate any advice so that I can be slightly more confident of what Ill get back from print.
