This seems a mad way to go about profiling. Wouldn't it make more sense for
Optical to supply a special sheet of paper to print the target on and then
for the Spyder to analyse the print, or something like that. Having to rely
on my Umax 2000U to assist in the profile creation seems ridiculous as its
the weakest link in my set-up.
Does anyone know if the Umax 2000U will output a Wiziwyg file?
I'd like to buy the kit but am sceptical the results might not be so
different from what I have now. Maybe the best thing to do is club together
with a few others, anyone interested???
