Just so you know - you'll also have to get or use the ICC profile for the paper you will be using...You'll put that ICC file into your colour drivers folder and then your graphics program should allow you to use it when you print.
OR calibrate your printer (which most photographers do not do). This method is more accurate but way more time consuming and you need special hardware.

I've seen this online. How does it work? I've seen this "gizmo object" ?

Casil, I've seen a couple of demo's for display calibration and on the ones used I didn't see much difference other than brightness. I checked my gama when I got the screen and have never had any trouble. My prints are very close to what my screen shows and it's not one of the pricey ones. Please reprint one you already have and compare and let us know what you think. If calibrated is a lot better, were you having noticable problems before? A concern I have is that with unknown correction being done at the printer I may have a drift and not know it. Be interested to here your opinion on the results. Thanks

I've got the Spyder 2 and it made a big difference after I calibrated the monitor and used the printer ICC profile. Before the calibration the prints were off in colour and way too dark. Now they match the screen pretty close.
